Save the dates!

  • Thursday, 16 May and Friday, 17 May


This year's C4LBC will be held in Vancouver, BC, and hosted by VCC at the Downtown Campus.

What's it all about?

It's a 2-day unconference - a participant-driven meeting bringing together a diverse and open community of library developers and non-developers engaging in effective, collaborative problem-solving through technology regardless of their department or background.

This year’s event will feature lightning talks and breakout sessions. Lightning talks are brief, 10-minute presentations on topics related to library technologies. Breakout sessions are an opportunity to bring participants together in an ad hoc fashion for a short, yet sustained period of problem solving, software development and fun.

  • What's included: a room, coffee/tea, wifi, power
  • What to bring: your ideas and enthusiasm.
  • Mastodon Hashtag: `#c4lbc`
  • Code of Conduct: As a Code4Lib event, we adhere to the Code4Lib Code of Conduct, which seeks to provide a welcoming, harassment-free environment.
