2025 Library Publishing Forum Call For Proposals
by Canada Open Education Resources 05 Dec '24

05 Dec '24

Good afternoon!The Library Publishing Forum <https://librarypublishing.org/forum/> is an annual conference bringing together representatives from libraries engaged in or considering publishing initiatives to define and address major questions and challenges; to identify and document collaborative opportunities; and to strengthen and promote this community of practice. The Forum is sponsored by the Library Publishing Coalition, but you do not need to be a member of the LPC to attend. The Library Publishing Coalition (LPC) is now accepting proposals <https://goo.gl/forms/jpvJ32KbuuecvBqp1> for the 2025 Virtual Library Publishing Forum being held from May 5-8, 2025. Proposals may address any topic of interest to the library publishing community. The proposal deadline is January 6, 2025. Proposal submissions are welcome from LPC members and nonmembers, including library employees, university press employees, scholars, students, and other scholarly communication and publishing professionals. Again, we welcome proposals from first-time presenters and representatives of small and emerging publishing programs. We are committed to expanding the diversity of perspectives we hear from at the Library Publishing Forum. Working towards some of the “Continuing Initiatives” from the LPC Roadmap for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jgE7c4wS4D72DgtakhZ-IK8whO3hN_jQ/view?usp=…>, we ask all proposals to explicitly address how they are inclusive of multiple perspectives, address DEIA, or incorporate anti-racist and anti-oppressive approaches. Presentations about specific communities should include members of that community in their speaker list, and for sessions with multiple speakers, we seek to avoid all-white and all-male panels. Learn more and submit a proposal <https://librarypublishing.org/program/>.
