This year's seminar theme was Libraries: A place for us all. Here are a some of the speeches and presentations from this year's seminar.

Over 150 people from the library sector joined us to explore the role of libraries in placemaking at the heart of communities. These included representatives from CILIP, British Library, DCMS, ACE, ASCEL, Carnegie UK Trust and The Reading Agency. Libraries Connected and Carnegie UK Trust also awarded bursaries to two aspiring leaders to cover the costs of their attendance.
