[Whitledge, Bryan R]

Mid-Michigan Digital Practitioners Fall Meeting
Thursday, November 14, 2024
Library of Michigan, Lansing MI

The Mid-Michigan Digital Practitioners (MMDP) will come together for an in-person meeting on Thursday, November 14, 2024, at the Library of Michigan in Lansing. 
 
As with all MMDP meetings, we will bring together a wide range of professionals and students engaged in creating and curating digital collections in Michigan and the surrounding region, including librarians, archivists, museum curators, historians, students, educators, and more. The goal of this meeting is to provide an opportunity for the MMDP community to share knowledge and make connections. New attendees are always welcome.
 
**Submit Your Proposals for the 2024 MMDP Meeting**
 
The MMDP Planning Group invites you to send your proposal for our November meeting. Proposals can be for Presentations (30-60 minutes), "Birds-of-a-Feather" Discussion Topics (approximately 30 minutes), Demonstrations (10 minutes), Lightning Talks (5 minutes), or a Poster. This is a great opportunity to reuse a poster shared at another conference! We welcome proposals from anyone, but are particularly interested in proposals from smaller institutions and students! For Presentations, Demonstrations, and Lightning Talks, we invite presenters to join us in-person or via a pre-recorded video. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate live-streamed presentations.
 
As always, we welcome proposals for demos, talks, or posters on a wide range of topics, including (but not limited to): 
 
. Collaboration
. ArchivesSpace
. Digital Preservation
. Digitization
. Electronic Records Management
. Project Management
. Storage Solutions
