Events in Columbia and Missouri

Maryland Information Literacy Exchange (MILEX) holds its fall (autumn) conference on 28 October 2011, at the Loyola Graduate Center, Columbia, MD, USA. The title is: How You Teach is What You Teach: Best Practices in Information Literacy. For more info go to their website: http://www.milexmd.org/ They have a wiki with presentations from some former meetings at http://milexmd.pbworks.com/w/page/20920372/FrontPage

The Brick & Click Academic Library Symposium organised by Northwest Missouri State University, USA, is on 4 November 2011. This includes some information literacy sessions. "Now in its 11th year, the Brick and Click Libraries Symposium is a one-day event featuring concurrent and lightning round sessions that explore cutting-edge technologies, practical solutions, and timely topics. The Symposium supports the academic information needs of both on-ground (brick) and online (click) students, library professionals and paraprofessionals." http://brickandclick.org/

I was alerted to both these events by a discussion on the ili discussion list.
