--Lightning Talks--
Lightning Talks provide attendees with valuable information in a less
formal manner than a Contributed Paper or Poster. Topics can cover
anything related to libraries: successful (or unsuccessful) projects,
new services, future initiatives, emerging technologies, etc. The
sky’s the limit! Each presenter will be given 2 minutes to cover their
topic and 2 minutes for questions. Presenters are encouraged to speak
extemporaneously without PowerPoint.

--Round Tables--
Do you have successful ideas or strategies that you want to share with
other librarians? Round Tables serve to promote discussion among
attendees who have a shared interest in a topic, idea, workflow, or
product. The emphasis is on informal open discussion and the
generation of new ideas. Consider facilitating a RoundTable to share
your expertise, get feedback, and exchange ideas.
