Welcome to Georgia COMO XXII!

Thank you for joining the 22nd celebration of the annual collaboration of the Georgia Association of Instructional Technology, Georgia Library Media Association, and Georgia Library Association. We hope that our annual state conference will provide inspiration and education for our diverse attendees. There is an impressive selection of keynote presentations, peer concurrent sessions, authors, and exhibits for all.

The GaCOMO XXII Steering Committee invites you to take advantage of the wide variety of activities featured during the conference. Kicking off the conference Wednesday night will be “Library Movie Night.”  We will have a free double feature with the documentary, “The Hollywood Librarian”, followed by “Party Girl.”  Free prizes and movie munchies will also be provided.

Thursday begins with our “Exhibits Only” time from 8:00 until 10:00 a.m. Our Opening General Session keynote speaker will be Michael Porter, also known as “LibraryMan.” We will have two days of informative and stimulating presentations, organizational award dinners and luncheons, Authors’ Reception, and exhibits.  Our Closing General Session will be an engaging panel of some of Georgia’s finest and most knowledgeable 2.0 librarians with Buffy Hamilton, Cliff Landis, and Tim Daniels. The GLA Scholarship Raffle extravaganza will be kicked off with demonstrations by Georgia’s Book Cart Drill Teams.

Take time to celebrate with old friends and introduce yourself to new ones. COMO XXII presents many opportunities to listen, learn, inquire and network that will help you leave Athens with new ideas and strategies to improve your knowledge and spark your enthusiasm.

Let’s get ready to “Celebrate With One Voice” at The Classic Center in Athens!
