Since LITA’s birth, participating in both ALA and independent annual conferences has played a major part in promoting LITA’s mission, which is to provide forums for individuals in the library community to converge and collaborate on subjects related to technological change in libraries. Typically with sponsored participation, LITA has been involved in several conferences since the 1960s such as '''COLA''', the '''LITA Forum''', the annual '''ALA Midwinter Meeting''', and the annual '''ALA National Conference''', and has previously participated in conferences like the '''"Airlie Conference"''' in 1970 as well as a conference titled '''"Directions in Education for Information Science: A Symposium for Educators"''' in 1971.
