    Dear Colleagues, 

    The BCC Program Committee is pleased to announce that the program for the 2021 BitCurator Users Forum and Educators' Summit is live and registration is open!

    Preliminary Program is Live!
    The Forum and BitCuratorEdu Educators' Summit program is now available on the BitCurator Consortium website. 

    Sessions will be non-concurrent (single-stream) and will run live starting between 8AM PST/ 11AM ET. 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). Choose the Educators' Summit when you register for BUF21 to receive a link to attend these sessions.
