Location: M Resort, just outside of Las Vegas, NV
Registration fee: $100 (includes breakfast, lunch, and multiple coffee breaks)

Apply to attend a workshop (deadline August 24)

The Library Publishing Coalition and the Educopia Institute, in collaboration with the Digital Library Federation (DLF), are excited to host a pair of in-person workshops at the 2018 DLF Forum based on the IMLS-funded Developing a Curriculum to Advance Library-Based Publishing project. Both full-day workshops will take place on Sunday, October 14 (the day before the Forum) at the M Resort just outside of Las Vegas, NV. Each workshop is limited to 20 participants, to be selected through a brief application process. We also have three diversity scholarships available - see below for details.

While the workshops are affiliated with and will complement the DLF Forum, please note that you do not have to attend the Forum to participate in the workshops. See below for workshop descriptions, scholarship information, and application instructions.

Note: These workshops are based on the Content and Sustainability modules of the Library Publishing Curriculum released in May of 2018.

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS
Library Publishing Curriculum: Content
The Content Workshop (based on the Content Module) covers how library publishers attract, select, edit, manage, and disseminate content. It includes information about how to recruit partners and select content for a program, and how to incorporate diverse voices into each part of the publication process. It also shares information about common production workflows, identifying the resources and staff skills needed to support various editorial strategies and content types.
Instructor: Matt Ruen, Grand Valley State University

Library Publishing Curriculum: Sustainability
The Sustainability workshop (based on the Sustainability Module) will focus on how library publishing endeavors can establish longevity and find long-term success. Attendees will learn how to build support with key stakeholders and communities, both internally (library staff) and externally (e.g., University Press), and how to undertake digital preservation to prolong the lifespan of digital publications.
Instructor: Lisa Schiff, California Digital Library
