The organizers of the 54th Annual LOEX Conference seek proposals for breakout sessions. Themed “Oceans of Knowledge: Diving into Information Literacy”, the Conference will take place from Thursday, May 7, to Saturday, May 9, 2026, in Norfolk, Virginia.
How do we teach, lead, and collaborate in an ever-changing sea of information? Explore this question and more at LOEX 2026 in Norfolk, VA–where rivers meet the Chesapeake Bay and a thriving waterfront culture reflects centuries of maritime tradition. Known as the “City of Mermaids,” Norfolk offers a fittingly whimsical and symbolic setting for Oceans of Knowledge: Diving into Information Literacy, inviting teaching librarians to plunge into the depths of pedagogy, innovation, leadership, and collaboration. We welcome you to join a vibrant community of educators navigating new currents in information literacy instruction.
