    Hi Folks,

    Code4Lib 2026 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. The conference will be held March 2nd - 4th, 2026 at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. You can find more information about the conference on the conference web site (https://2026.code4lib.org/) and more information about the Code4Lib community at https://code4lib.org/about/.
