Code4Lib 2025 is soliciting proposals for prepared talks!

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 <https://code4lib.org/about/>.

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 at 2025.code4lib.org.

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.

Thank you,

The Code4Lib 2025 Program Committee
