Dear Business Librarians,
The Midwest Business Librarian Summit Committee is thrilled to announce the 2021 Midwest Business Librarian Summit (MBLS). MBLS is an annual event to gather together academic, corporate, and public business librarians to discuss outreach, instruction, resources, and all things business librarian! This year's Summit will be on October 11, 2021, from 10am-4pm EST at Purdue University. Learn more here.
At this point, we have an exciting lineup planned. We will be hearing from different vendors as well as from our fellow colleagues. The lightning talk presentations include the following topics:
• AI, ML, and Algorithms, Oh My: How Technology Affects Search Results

• Creating a Values-Based Collections Evaluation Rubric
• Developing a Library Market Research Service

Breakfast and boxed lunches will be served. There is also an optional happy hour for attendees after the MBLS events.
• We ask that attendees are vaccinated to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
• Per the Protect Purdue precautions, attendees must wear masks.
• The event is limited to a set capacity of attendees.
• Boxed lunches will be served.
• Lunch will be offered outdoors under a tent. Attendees can enjoy lunch under the tent or choose a seating area around campus during the lunch break.
We look forward to seeing you at MBLS 2021 soon!
