Registration for DLfM 2020 is open, and the conference is fast approaching. Attendees should register by Friday 9 October 2020.

The Digital Libraries for Musicology (DLfM) conference presents a venue specifically for those working on, and with, Digital Library systems and content in the domain of music and musicology. This includes Music Digital Library systems, their application and use in musicology, technologies for enhanced access and organisation of musics in Digital Libraries, bibliographic and metadata for music, intersections with music Linked Data, and the challenges of working with the multiple representations of music across large-scale digital collections such as the Internet Archive and HathiTrust.

The conference will take place over Zoom, with (optional) spaces for discussion and networking in Slack. More details of the format will be added on our website soon.

       CONCLUSION & INFORMAL DISCUSSION

Registration for non-presenters costs CA$15 (CA$5 for independent students, people from low-GDP countries, and low-income attendees, who are paying out-of-pocket). Registration is integrated with ISMIR's registration, and we would encourage all attendees to consider supporting the larger conference. To register for DLfM without also registering for ISMIR, you will need to request a fee-waiver code from ismir2020-registration at ismir.net.

We look forward to seeing you there.
