The Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA) 45th Annual Conference
Arts du Monde will be held February 5-9, 2017 in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Seattle’s post-conference survey results asked for programming centered on digital art history, collection development, user experience, instruction, and scholarly communications,

These highlighted sessions below will provide attendees with practical approaches for implementing new ideas and technologies.
