Code4Lib 2025 is soliciting proposals for prepared talks! From the call:
Code4Lib 2025 is a loosely-structured conference that provides people working at the intersection of libraries/archives/museums/cultural heritage and technology with a chance to share ideas, be inspired, and forge
collaborations. For more information about the Code4Lib community, please visit the Code4Lib website.The conference will be held at Princeton University in Princeton, NJ, from Monday, March 10, 2025 to Thursday, March 13, 2025. Remote attendance via YouTube and remote presentations will be supported. More information on the 2025 conference is coming soon.
We encourage all members of the library, archives, museums, cultural heritage organizations, and technology community to submit proposals for prepared talks. Prepared talks should focus on one or more of the following
areas:
- Projects you’ve worked on which incorporate innovative implementation of
existing technologies and/or development of new software- Tools and technologies – How to get the most out of existing tools,
standards, and protocols (and ideas on how to make them better)- Technical issues – Big issues in library technology that are worthy of
community attention or development- Relevant non-technical issues – Concerns of interest to the Code4Lib
community which are not strictly technical in nature, e.g. collaboration,
diversity, organizational challenges, etc.We will be soliciting 10, 15, and 20 minute talks. You’ll be asked to indicate which talk lengths you would be willing to accommodate for your proposal. To ensure diversity of presenters, no speaker should be included on more than two presentation submissions.
Submit a presentation proposal for Code4Lib 2025.
A separate call for poster proposals will be offered at a later date. There will also be sign-up opportunities to present 5-minute lightning talks at the event.
As in past years, the Code4Lib community will vote on proposals that they would like to see included in the program. In order to provide increased opportunities for a diversity of speakers and topics, all presentations
will be listed by title, institution, and description only during the voting period. Speaker names will not be included until the program is posted.The top 10 proposals are guaranteed a slot of their preferred length at the conference. The Program Committee will curate the remainder of the program in an effort to ensure diversity in program content and presenters. Community votes will weigh heavily in these decisions.
Presenters whose proposals are selected for inclusion in the program will have conference registration slots held for them (up to 2 speakers per talk). The standard conference registration fee will apply.
Proposals can be submitted through Friday, October 11, 2024 at 11:59pm Pacific time.
Voting will start Friday, October 18, 2024 and continue through Thursday, November 7, 2024. The committee plans to contact selected presenters by mid-November and announce the program to the Code4Lib community by early
December 2024.
