About the Paraprofessional Conference

The annual Paraprofessional Conference is a multi-day event that includes presentations and training. The conference gives staff the opportunity to attend sessions on a variety of topics. Presenters come from a wide array of institutions. The goal of the conference is to provide guidance and information that will allow paraprofessionals to bring constructive change to their home institutions.

The 2022 conference will be held on May 11-12. This event is geared towards school, public, and academic library staff, but includes sessions that will be of interest to any paraprofessional working in a public environment.

This year’s theme is “Inclusion & Diversity”. The conference will incorporate sessions focused on the positive outcomes when libraries foster inclusive environments that promote diversity amongst internal staff as well as provide resources to all individuals in the communities they serve.
