What makes the DLF Forum great?

After nearly 14 years of academic library experience and subsequently participating in no less than 25 conferences, I can say that the DLF Forum was the most progressive and enlightening conference that I have ever attended. It was downright empowering.
The thoughtful way the experience was designed was due to the efforts of the organizers...As a first-time participant, I am grateful to have been able to participate in this year’s virtual Forum and look forward to continuing to learn from the DLF community!
