Childcare

The registration link will be posted on the website, and will be emailed to the Code4Lib and Code4LibCon listservs. There will be no waitlist at this time, but there will be a second release of spots on a TBD future date.

Additional Information

  1. There will be two opportunities to register. 12/10/15 was the first, where we will be making available 290 spots. Once we have determined that all required attendees have registered (sponsors, presenters, workshop leaders), we will reopen registration again will open at 12 noon (EST) on Wednesday January 13th for the remaining spots. The total capacity is 440.
  2. The registration system maintains a two hour session per registration attempt. Due to the potential of heavy access and this prolonged session, the conference may appear to sell out quickly. But once early failed sessions expire, more spots may open up beginning around 2pm. Because of this we ask you not to assume it is sold out until you hear an announcement from the planning committee.
  3. A waiting list will open when we release the second round of registration slots.
  4. The conference program is not complete at this time. See the election results to get an idea of what will be part of the program. This list represents the presentation voting results. Only the top ten (highlighted) have been accepted so far. As in recent years, the remainder of the program will be curated by the program committee, taking into account voting results, topic diversity, and speaker diversity. These selections will be announced in coming weeks.
  5. Registration will include the option to select preconference workshops. You can view the available workshops beforehand to get an idea of what will be offered. Wait lists will be available for workshops, and you will receive relevant instructions with your confirmation email.
