Welcome to the New Mexico Library Association's 101st annual conference. This year's theme, Dragons in the Dark: Demystifying Librarianship in the Age of AI and Censorship, asks New Mexican librarians to come together and talk about tough situations and “impossible” problems. What dragons has your library been dealing with? How did you slay them? Or what are you doing to confront them?Exhibitors will have opportunities to meet decision-makers from New Mexico's diverse library community including professionals from academic, public, school, tribal, museum and special libraries across the state.
