Hello all,

There are only nine (9) days left for regular conference registration rates for NASIG’s 38th annual conference in Pittsburgh, PA from May 22-25!

Register soon to secure your place at the lowest rate for what promises to be an excellent and informative event. The Omni William Penn, a beautiful and historic hotel in vibrant downtown Pittsburgh, will be our location. We have negotiated conference rates (a reservation link to secure these conference rates is included in your conference registration confirmation email).

NASIG is also excited to announce additions to vendor sponsors for #nasig2023 and therefore an expanded Vendor Expo. ACM Open, Health Affairs, Oxford University Press, OCLC, and Taylor & Francis will join us, in addition to previously announced sponsors: ACS Publications, AIP Publishing, Bloomsbury Digital Resources, EBSCO, JoVE, Harrassowitz, IOP Publishing, Lyrasis, Project Muse, Springer Nature, Wiley, and W.T. Cox. In addition to being conference sponsors, Harrassowitz and EBSCO have pledged to sponsor two winners of our Equity & Inclusion Award. We are grateful for such strong support from our colleagues.

Interested in what we have planned? Check out the full schedule at https://nasig2023.sched.com/ and be sure to register by going to https://www.nasig.org/38conference. Several interesting and timely concurrent sessions are planned and we have also included focused workshops from well known speakers in the regular schedule. Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe will present on Privacy, User Data, and Library Licensing. Steve Shadle will teach us about electronic serials cataloging. Claire Dygert will focus on Building Your Licensing & Negotiation Toolbox. Michael Rodriguez will talk about Evaluating Open Access Investment Opportunities for Your Library.

Stay tuned for future communications about Pittburgh’s many cultural opportunities, as well as updates to the conference schedule including added Vision Session speakers and other great features. We hope you’ll join us!
