We are now accepting pre-conference proposals for the 2020 Code4Lib conference in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. These pre-conferences can either be a 1-day (six hour) or a 1/2-day session (three hour) and will occur on Sunday, March 8, 2020.
Code4Lib 2020 is a loosely-structured conference that provides people working at the intersection of libraries/archives/museums/
The pre-conference sessions give folks a space to share and build knowledge, as well as to
teach attendees new skills relevant to library technology. Pre-conference sessions can range from workshops to working sessions. We welcome a variety of ideas and encourage submissions from first-time presenters and members of groups not well-represented within
the Code4Lib community, including but not limited to: women, people of color, people with disabilities, LGBT+.
To propose a session, please go here.
If you're looking for inspiration, there are many great examples of pre-conferences from last year. To view these, visit https://2019.code4lib.org/
We are taking proposals until Friday, October 4, 2019, 5 PST / 8 EST. After a period of public voting on workshops, we hope to confirm sessions with the facilitators shortly after.
