The New Mexico Library Association is calling for proposals that align with the theme for the annual conference in Las Cruces this October 21-23. https://nmla.org/Proposals
The deadline for Conference proposals has been extended! These proposals are due on Tuesday, July 7, 2026.
Conference presentations will be held Thursday, October 22 and Friday,October 23, 2026. Below are the available presentation formats.
“Libraries in Bloom: From Roots to Results” celebrates the journey of library work, from the values that ground us to the impact we make in our communities. Like a garden, libraries grow through care, creativity, and shared effort, turning ideas into meaningful results for the people we serve.
We encourage librarians, library staff, and library allies at all experience levels to submit proposals. You don’t need to be an expert, your experiences and ideas matter. Whether you’re sharing a successful program, a challenge you’ve worked through, or something you’re still figuring out, your story can help others learn and grow. This conference is a welcoming place to try something new and connect with others in the field.
*Members-at-Large will reach out to SIGs to check whether or not they want to schedule a meeting at the conference.
