Meetings

AMICAL holds a combined meeting and conference every year, hosted by one of the member campuses. These events give our highly dispersed members an opportunity to meet in person, learn about developments in libraries, learning technologies and higher education, and develop plans for collaborative projects to work on over the coming year.
