Hello everyone, 

This is a quick reminder that there is one more week to get applications in for AI4LAM's 2023 Fantastic Futures Conference Call for Proposals. The call will close in one week, on 14 August 2023. Jefferson Bailey from the host institution, Internet Archives Canada, has written: 

"The program committee is looking for talks, presentations, and workshop proposals on the topic of artificial intelligence as applied to libraries, archives, and museums. The conference aims to bring together a diverse group of participants including professionals from LAMs, as well as researchers, scholars, practitioners, industry representatives, policy and advocacy groups, and others interested in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in memory organizations and the preservation and access of knowledge. The conference will be an opportunity to share current experiences in AI, from practical local uses, to institutional best practices, education and training, partnerships and collaboration, tools and technologies, and other issues impacting cultural and scientific heritage. The event also encourages applications from those with different levels of institutional maturity when it comes to understanding and deploying AI and encourages proposals and participants from a diversity of institution types, sizes, and especially geographic location."

Full details on proposal types and possible topics can be found on the conference website: https://ff2023.archive.org/pages/call_for_proposals/ and applications can be made via the CfP submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ai4lam2023. 

With best wishes,
