The Code4Lib Scholarship Committee seeks to award several Diversity Scholarships based on merit and need. Domestic applicants (in the United States and Canada) can receive up to $1,500 USD, while international applicants can be awarded up to $3,000 USD. These funds are intended to cover travel expenses, hotel accommodations, and conference fees for the 2024 Code4Lib Conference in Ann Arbor, MI. The deadline for applications is '''DATE TO BE DETERMINED, 2024, 11:59 PM EST'''.
+
Proposals are now being accepted and the deadline for proposals will be March 31, 2025. Please use this link to submit your proposal: https://forms.gle/mKrEZ6hmrvWHTM6X9
  
Scholarship recipients will have their conference registration and hotel accommodations covered upfront. Other incidentals, like local transportation and meals, may be reimbursed depending on the awarded amount. Reimbursements will be processed at the conference. Additionally, there is an option to share accommodations with fellow scholarship awardees or other conference attendees. For inquiries about these arrangements, please contact '''code4libaward@gmail.com'''. Our goal is to ensure that financial concerns do not discourage anyone from applying.  
+
Registration opens March 1st, 2025.
  
We do not expect scholarship recipients to be responsible for being an ambassador for their group or an educator of others during the conference. While learning and exchange may happen as a result of interactions between participants, scholarship recipients are encouraged to focus on getting the most out of their experience and have no special duties or obligations apart from conference attendance, engaged participation to their comfort level, and giving us feedback on their experience.
+
Registration is free of charge, but will be capped at 50 people per day. Breakfast and afternoon snack will be provided. There may be ice cream, to ease the strain of Atlanta in July.
