I f you've never been to one of these unsymposiums or symposiums around Duluth Superior, you are missing out. Colleagues from all types of libraries in both WI, MN and sometimes Canada gather to network, learn and explore. The unsymposiums are especially great because YOU can help set the agenda.
Registration is OPEN for our twelfth annual Lake Superior Libraries Unsymposium!
Our twelfth annual Lake Superior Libraries Unsymposium will be held on Friday, January 10, 2025, from 1-4:30 p.m. at Superior Public Library in Superior, Wisconsin! We hope you’ll join us for an afternoon of conversation, collaboration, and connection!
What’s an “unsymposium,” you ask? At our Mid-winter Unsymposium, we turn the idea of a “conference” upside down! Rather than inviting speakers to talk about predetermined topics related to a specific theme, unsymposium attendees brainstorm discussion topics and then vote for their favorites!
You can suggest discussion topics when you register, or you can suggest them at the event. After collecting all of the suggested topics, everybody in attendance votes for their favorites, and then we break into small groups for discussion. At our Unconference, you determine the conversation!
Would you like to meet up with Unsymposium attendees for lunch before the Unsymposium? We’ll meet at Julie’s Family Restaurant (403 Belknap Street in Superior) at 11:30 a.m. for networking, camaraderie, and a delicious lunch before heading over to the library for the Unsymposium. We’d love to see you there!
We hope you’ll join us at the Unsymposium on Friday, January 10, 2025, for invigorating discussion with other library folks. Be prepared to take that enthusiasm back to your library! Registration is open now!
