There is a call for proposals for the 2026 Virtual LILi Conference, to be held online on 23-24 July 2026 (in the US Pacific time zone: for those in the UK and other parts of Europe this will be in late afternoon/ evening). The theme is Artificial Intelligence Meets Information Literacy: Challenges and Opportunities for the Future. The submission deadline is 13 April 2026. 

You can propose presentations (15-min presentation plus Q&A), lightning talks (5-7 minutes), PechaKuchas or posters "that explore innovative approaches, research findings, practical strategies, and emerging trends in libraries and information literacy related to artificial intelligence, particularly in support of equity and inclusivity." There is a "focus on practical uses rather than theory" and some specific themes are suggested on the page with the full call (which includes proposal form links) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dH6pDiIq8XMaJARUGL7umcnCNRcijQGkZrK3VzF5OCQ/edit?tab=t.0
I will just add that I think  it's wonderful that the LiLI volunteers keep organising these free interesting events!
