About the AASL National Conference

A one-of-a-kind conference, AASL23 will feature daily keynotes, more than 150 concurrent sessions, author panels, research into practice sessions, more than 150 exhibitors, the best practice IdeaLab, author signings, and endless networking opportunities.

Content provided at the conference is rooted in AASL’s National School Library Standards for Learners, School Librarians, and School Libraries.

Complimentary Administrator Registration

Any full conference registration offers a complimentary registration for an administrator.

Every AASL National Conference offers attendees myriad ways to enhance their knowledge of school library standards, be inspired by keynote speakers and authors, and learn innovative practices from colleagues. I always leave each national conference with a suitcase full of books, lesson plans, and the nuts and bolts for library programming that makes a difference for all students.

Paige Battle, Conference Co-chair

Now more than ever, we need to come together as a profession to network, learn, advocate, and grow because we are all better together. The AASL National Conference is an opportunity for school librarians from across the country to reconnect, make new friends, and share ways to navigate the current landscape of school librarianship and celebrate the best job on the planet. This is our moment in history and the time to show our support for one another.

Amanda Jones, Conference Co-chair
