DLF Digest: December 2023 A monthly round-up of news, upcoming working group<https://www.diglib.org/groups/> meetings and events, and CLIR<https://www.clir.org/> program updates from the Digital Library Federation<https://www.diglib.org/>. ________________________________ This month’s news: * At the 2023 DLF Forum closing plenary, participants joined us for small group discussions about the four topics registrants indicated were most important to them about attending a conference. We’re excited to offer a similar session virtually to open the door to feedback from folks who may not have attended the Forum in person. Join us in co-creating the blueprint for the future of conferencing in our community. The DLF Forum has always been a place of innovation and collaboration, and together, we can continue to make it even more special. More information and link to register available on DLF’s website.<https://www.diglib.org/join-us-for-the-forum-feedback-event-series-launch-on-12-6/> * In October, with support from a GLAM Cross-Pollinator Registration Award, Devon Murphy attended the 86th Annual Meeting of (ASIS&T) in London.
