We’re excited to welcome you to the 2025 VIVA Community Forum, where academic library professionals across Virginia come together to explore challenges, share strategies, and foster innovation.

This year's theme, Can Less Be More? Libraries Meeting Challenges Creatively, will delve into the pressing realities facing academic libraries—including staffing constraints, budgetary limitations, and evolving user needs. Our discussions will highlight innovative, sustainable, and transformative solutions being implemented by VIVA members to adapt and thrive.

We are honored to announce Nancy Falciani-White, Library Director at Randolph-Macon College, as our keynote speaker. With over two decades of experience in liberal arts college libraries, Nancy brings a wealth of knowledge on academic library leadership, the role of creativity in problem-solving, and how technological innovations shape research practices.

Whether you're looking to gain fresh perspectives, engage with peers, or share your own innovative solutions,  this forum is an opportunity to connect, learn, and inspire.
