In 2010, Library Journal and School Library Journal brought you our inaugural 
Virtual Summit on ebooks and the library market, Ebooks: Libraries at the 
Tipping Point. More than 2,000 participants from the library community joined us 
for this day-long virtual event to discuss how ebooks are shaping the future of 
libraries.

This year, we go one step beyond to bring you Ebooks: The New Normal. This 
one-day virtual conference will bring together public, academic and school 
librarians (K-12), vendors, publishers, and industry experts to address how 
libraries are leveraging the ebook opportunity to improve service and reach more 
users than ever before. The event offers something for everyone, from building 
an ebook strategy and collection to mastering the transition and even how to 
market ebooks to patrons. 

WHAT WILL YOU EXPERIENCE? 	* Forward-thinking presentations and panel 
discussions on the evolving concept of the book in a digital world
	* Presentations focusing on current best practices for library ebook 
collections in libraries of all types
	* Relevant research on ebook penetration and adoption by libraries and millions 
of library users 

	* Virtual vendor booths, live chats, vendor presentations, informative take 
aways, and prizes
	* Unlimited access to the archived content for 3 months 

 
Featuring individually focused tracks for the public, academic and school (K–12) 
library segments, with expert panelists and speakers including:
