What's Different This Year


For the first time, our Annual Summit is open to the entire library, museum, and cultural heritage community — Lyrasis members and non-members alike. Whether you're navigating ebook licensing complexities, advancing open access initiatives, or strengthening your institution's digital infrastructure, our Annual Summit will connect you with peers facing similar challenges and the Lyrasis leaders developing solutions alongside you.



What You'll Gain

·     Strategic insight on how libraries are adapting to rapid change in scholarly communication, digital access, and preservation
·     Practical strategies from peer institutions successfully using Lyrasis services to strengthen organizational resilience
·     Direct access to Lyrasis leadership on priorities that impact your daily work
·     Peer connections across academic and public libraries navigating similar challenges
·     A comprehensive overview of Lyrasis membership benefits — members will discover how to maximize your investment; non-members will learn what's available to you now and through membership



Who You'll Hear From 


John Wilkin, CEO, Lyrasis, will provide an update on strategic priorities and what's ahead for the library community


Jason Kucsma, Executive Director of the Toledo Lucas County (OH) Public Library and Chair for the Lyrasis Board of Directors, will share updates from the Lyrasis board and governance, and highlight membership value


Lyrasis Senior Leaders will share updates on our evolving services in content licensing, open access, digital preservation and open-source infrastructure


A member panel on real-world impact, where your peers will share how they are using Lyrasis membership and services to tackle challenges like rising content costs, platform sustainability and equitable access. Member panelists include:
·     Dr. Constance Caddell, University Archivist, Tuskegee University Libraries
·     Nancy Lin, Senior Data Projects Strategist, New York University Libraries
·     Andrée Rathemacher, Head of Acquisitions, University Libraries of the University of Rhode Island
