    To: ARL DEI Programs Alums <arl-dei-programs-alums@arl.org>


    Hi everyone! We're excited to do things a bit differently this year for the Digital Library Federation (DLF) Forum. We're hosting an in-person event at Michigan State University this July (program coming soon) and a virtual event October 22-23. We're pumped to announce we have opened the Call for Proposals for the virtual DLF Forum.

    We encourage proposals from members and non-members; regulars and newcomers; digital library practitioners from all sectors (higher education, museums and cultural heritage, public libraries, archives, etc.) and those in adjacent fields such as institutional research and educational technology; and students, early- and mid-career professionals and senior staff alike. We especially welcome proposals from individuals who bring diverse professional and life experiences to the conference, including those from underrepresented or historically excluded racial, ethnic, or religious backgrounds, immigrants, veterans, those with disabilities, and people of all sexual orientations or gender identities. 



    Curious about submitting but not sure where to start? Join our next CFP Office Hours on Tues., April 30, at 1pm ET USA to learn more about the virtual event and submission types. Register for the Office Hours here.

    For any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at forum@diglib.org. Thanks!

    Jennifer Ferretti 
    Director, Digital Library Federation
