Re: [CODE4LIB] 2014 Conference
John, We are still working on pricing, as we are negotiating with the hotel for food and beverage and are still working on an A/V RFP. And we are still actively working on sponsorship for the conference. The conference normally runs less than $200 registration. Based on our current budget estimates, the same will be true this year, although like I said, we don't have A/V quotes yet, so we can't promise anything yet. Currently, we anticipate that registration will open mid-January. It is on our calendar to announce a firm registration date by the beginning of December; we'll do it earlier if we can get the registration amount nailed down earlier. If you are interested in asking more about the conference, you can always utilize this list, or you can join the open 'code4libcon' google group and ask there. Also: note to all that the CFP for the conference will be going out VERY SOON. So it's not too early to start thinking about what kind of proposal you might want to put in. :) And a gentle reminder to those who have not presented at Code4Lib before - it's ok to submit a proposal for work you haven't finished yet. It'll be a great motivator for you to get it done in the upcoming months! -emily -- Date:Fri, 4 Oct 2013 19:29:37 + From:John Blair john.bl...@usm.edu Subject: 2014 Conference Hello- I'm looking to attend the 2014 conference, and am having a hard time finding information regarding registration, pricing, and contact information.
