International Indigenous Librarians' Forum 2023

With the start of IILF Hawaiʻi less than ONE WEEK AWAY, we are excited to share the official IILF Hawaiʻi Program (please download to your device for full functionality with internal links)! Also available are the Lā Waimea (Day 1: Day on the Land) Welcome Packet and the Lā Kūʻokoʻa Celebration (Day 2) Pamphlet. We hope you're getting as excited as we are!

The 2023 Joint Conference of the Hawaiʻi Library Association (HLA) and Hawaiʻi Association of School Librarians (HASL) will be held December 1-2, 2023, immediately following the closing of IILF Hawaiʻi. They are currently seeking poster proposals through October 1, 2023. IILF Delegates from other states and countries will receive discounted registration to attend this joint conference. For more information, visit the 2023 HLA/HASL Joint Conference website at http://go.hawaii.edu/VqX. More details about the special registration rates will be released in early Fall.

Our naʻau are heavy with the destruction and loss of life due to the brush fires on Maui. We are continuing our work for IILF 2023 and will address any questions that arise to the best of our abilities. We also ask for grace and space to grieve all that we have lost. If you are able, please donate to the Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement's "Kākoʻo Maui" fundraising campaign: https://www.memberplanet.com/campaign/cnhamembers/kakoomaui. Mahalo.
