Kohathon Call for Proposals

by Jessie Zairo on Dec 6, 2019

Koha-US is planning an online conference we are calling Kohathon.

Kohathon will be an online-conference on April 23, 2020, beginning at the start of the day on the US east coast (12:00 UTC) to the end of the day on the US west coast (4:00 UTC, April 24) (Find out what time that is for you here.)

Kohathon will be free and open to anyone who wishes to attend and participate. Its entirety will be streamed live on YouTube and the content will be recorded so that anyone who wishes can view the presentations at a later date.

At this time we are asking for presentation proposals. If there's anything you'd like to talk about, please fill out the form at
https://forms.gle/jRUQwJ4Tn4Qq862p8

Presentations can be as short as 10 minutes or as long as 60 on any topic related to Koha, or any other open source topics related to Koha, the Koha community, libraries, or anything else you think of as "Open." And if you'd like to submit more than one proposal, please do so.

We will be accepting proposals through January 10, 2020.

If you have any questions, please let us know at conferences@koha-us.org or info@koha-us.org.
