2026 LMCC Sponsorship Opportunities
The Library Marketing and Communications Conference (LMCC) is the only event of its kind designed specifically for library marketing and communications. Professionals of all levels in academic, public, and special libraries attend sessions exploring important issues, share marketing and giveaway ideas, hang out together at dine arounds and local tours, and network with others in their field.
Library professionals leave LMCC in a better position to have their messages heard and to have their services well-used and appreciated. As a sponsor, your business will be an integral part of this unique, premier event, increasing your brand's visibility and reach.
Our community is always learning, growing, and exploring how to advance marketing and communications strategically, effectively, and equitably. By sponsoring the LMCC, you’ll have the opportunity to meaningfully engage with hundreds of potential clients and customers. Plus, LMCC is way more fun than other conferences!
Join us in St. Louis, MO, November 11-12, 2026.
LMCC brings around 450 participants from around the country and world, representing libraries of all size and type. But LMCC is much more than a conference. For year-round opportunities, consider sponsoring a webinar or our online forum. Contact us lcc@amigos.org today!
