    Hi Jenny,

    I believe that the times on the registration form adjust for what time zone you are in. Underneath the listed times on the meeting registration form, there should be text that clarifies "Time shows in _____ Time (U.S. and Canada)".

    On our conference website (https://godort.libguides.com/2023annual/home), the times are in Central Time and the day-by-day calendar on the guide is the most accurate representation of when meetings will be.

    Hope that helps!
    Kian
