Join us for the 2025 Georgia Libraries Conference
Be a Part of the 2025 Georgia Libraries Conference as a Vendor or Sponsor
The Georgia Library Association invites you to join us for the 2025 Georgia Libraries Conference (GLC), taking place in person from October 8–10, 2025, at the Columbus GA Convention & Trade Center in Columbus, Georgia.
This annual conference brings together library professionals from across the state and beyond to share ideas, explore innovations, and celebrate accomplishments. As a vendor or sponsor, your participation is a valued part of the experience—providing you the opportunity to connect directly with library decision-makers, showcase your products or services, and demonstrate your commitment to supporting the library community.
This year’s theme is “Georgia Libraries: Leading Change, Building Futures,” and we expect to host over 50 engaging sessions and a wide range of attendees. Our conference will kick off with a special preconference session the morning of October 8. Please note: GLC 2025 will be an in-person-only event.
We invite you to explore our sponsorship opportunities and exhibitor packages and secure your spot today. Hotel accommodations and additional logistics are provided below.
