LITACamp is a library technology un-conference for anyone interested in using technology to improve services and access for patrons. Librarians, information technologists, students and trustees from the user-centered information community especially will want to attend this un-conference focused on issues determined by the participants themselves.

The Camp features a community-driven format, and presentations are designed and delivered by attendees. The daily keynotes are designed to stimulate discussions and ideas and energize the sessions. Keynotes include Joan Frye Williams and John Blyberg.
