Each day will include a variety of opportunities for engagement including workshops, lightning talks, and themed sessions on Remote Workflows, Iteration and Scalability, BitCurator, Access and Discoverability, and Tools & Demos Showcase. We also have a few special sessions this year! We’ll do a rerun of our popular "Great Question!" session where attendees can ask anonymous questions in an open forum, and two Birds Of A Feather sessions for BIPOC attendees and Students and New Professionals. *NEW this year: BitCuratorEdu Educators' Summit* The BitCuratorEdu project, in collaboration with the 2021 BitCurator Users Forum, is delighted to organize the BitCuratorEdu Educators' Summit on Friday, October 15 (the day after the Forum).
