The International Association of Scientific and Technological University Libraries (IATUL) is a voluntary international organization which provides a forum for the exchange of ideas relevant to librarianship in technological universities throughout the world. It also provides library directors and senior managers an opportunity to develop a collaborative approach to solving common problems.

The 30th Annual IATUL Conference was held on June 1st – June 4th, 2009 at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium. The 30th Annual IATUL Conference’s theme was “Just for you: Quality through Innovation”.
