Mission

ER&L facilitates the communication and collaboration for information professionals around issues related to managing electronic resources in the digital world.

Purpose

The goal of the ER&L Conference is to bring together information professionals from libraries and related industries to improve the way we collect, manage, maintain, and make accessible electronic resources in an ever-changing online environment. We do this once a year at an in-person conference. In addition, sessions are recorded and made available online in an online conference.

ER&L allows for cross-pollination of ideas across fields of librarianship not often brought together in traditional public services or technical services conferences.

An orientation to ER&L for new visitors is available here.
