About Conference
According to a recent survey -the internet will be dominated by machines and sensors
rather by people. By 2020, there will be close to a trillion sensors sending data over the
web and will be added to the world of the Internet of Things (IoT). What does the world
where billions of everyday objects connect to each other and share information mean for
libraries? IoT presents major opportunities for libraries to connect their services to more
people and more things in more places than ever before. This three days international
conference is a highly effective program, and a platform which brings together library
professionals to exchange their innovative ideas and research. The program will also
provide opportunity to the participants to carry hands-on-practice and to attend many
expert sessions.
