A majority of the world’s population professes to a faith tradition of their ancestors, their country, or both. More than ever, we live in times calling for knowledge and respect for traditions of other people.  The IFLA RELINDIAL SIG (Religions: Libraries and Dialogue Special Interest Group) and the American Theological Library Association (ATLA) welcome you to a timely discussion on Fostering Global Communication among Religions and Libraries.  Jamie LaRue, Director of the American Library Association’s Office for Intellectual Freedom and Dr. Nancy Arnison, Director of the Theological Book Network are keynote speakers.  Together with panelists and paper presenters, they will discuss how religions and libraries are changing the nature of interfaith dialogue through their services and activities.  Come join us on Friday, August 12, to learn from all of the participants – presenters and audience – and to share your thoughts.  View the full program.   Information on hotel accommodations is also included.Registration or attendance of IFLA is not required.   Space is limited, so register now!
