DLF Digest: October 2022 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: * The DLF Forum<https://forum2022.diglib.org/>, Learn@DLF<https://forum2022.diglib.org/affiliated-events/learndlf/> preconference workshops, NDSA’s Digital Preservation 2022: Preserving Legacy<https://ndsa.org/conference/>, and CLIR’s Digitizing Hidden Collections Symposium<https://www.clir.org/hiddencollections/events/2022-symposium/> take place in Baltimore, Maryland from Sunday, October 9 through Thursday, October 13. During this time, CLIR staff may not be able to respond to all email requests immediately. We apologize for any inconvenience. * We are deeply saddened by the passing of Deanna Marcum in August. Deanna was CLIR’s first president and led its two predecessor organizations—the Council on Library Resources and the Commission on Preservation and Access—before their merger in 1997. Throughout a remarkable career spanning decades, she touched the lives of many as a colleague, friend, mentor, visionary, and leader. At CLIR, we remember her life with admiration and gratitude, but mourn a profound loss<https://www.clir.org/2022/09/remembering-deanna-marcum/>. * Due to this year’s DLF Forum schedule, CLIR and DLF will close on November 1, the beginning of National Native American Heritage Month<https://nativeamericanheritagemonth.gov/>, instead of on the October 10 Indigenous Peoples’ Day federal holiday.
