2018 Presentation Voting Results
Every year, the Code4Lib community votes on proposals that they would like to see included in the program. The top 10 proposals are guaranteed a slot at the conference. For all other slots, the Program Committee curates the remainder of presentations in an effort to ensure diversity and quality using the following criteria:
- Favor first time presenters
- No duplicate presenters
- Diversity of presenters by gender, ethnicity, institution, type of institution
- Diversity of topics/content
- Presentations still generally well voted/received by community
Those who proposed a talk but were not selected are highly encouraged to do a lightning talk during the conference. Lightning talks are first come first serve sign up during the conference.
