Each year SEMLA holds a three-day meeting (usually in October) which typically includes informative program sessions, tours, concerts and a delicious banquet. This annual event provides valuable professional nourishment, as well as low-pressure networking and socializing opportunities with other music library enthusiasts. A one-day pre-conference workshop in music librarianship basics often occurs on the first day of the annual meeting.
