Anyone who works in a library, uses their library, thinks about libraries or wants to be part of the event.
An unconference works on the principle that whoever turns up is the right person and whatever you discuss is the right thing. People prepare topics, but sessions are decided on the day. Everyone is expected to participate by either presenting, joining in the discussion or doing another job.
