Are you interested in submitting a proposal to the DLF Forum, Learn@DLF, or NDSA’s Digital Preservation, but not sure where to start? 

Please join us for our Office Hours, during which our staff and planning committee members will provide a short overview of our upcoming events and the different types of presentations that we're looking for in our Calls for Proposals. After the introduction, there will be an opportunity for attendees to ask questions and engage in discussions with us about our events. This is an excellent chance to learn more about our 2023 events and CFPs before the submission deadline on May 1st. Learn more about our 2023 events and CFPs.
