We hope you will join us for our online conference!
Koha-US has decided to move our annual conference online this fall.
Our plan had been to meet in September in McKinney Texas, but due to the ongoing pandemic, we have made the decision to move the conference online this year.
We polled members and a large majority indicated they would not be able to attend due to institutional limits on travel this year.
We are planning on holding our 2021 conference in McKinney next year.
We hope you will join us for Koha-US 2020 Online Together beginning on Tuesday September 22nd.
We are still working out the exact details of how long the conference will be, so look for more information on that with our tentative schedule next month.
Additionally we are asking interested people to make a short 5 minute video about where they are and what they’d like to share about their town and/or library since we will not be exploring anyone’s city during this conference.
We plan on running these on breaks and lunches during the conference. If you are interested in doing one, you can share it with conferences@koha-us.org via Google Drive or a Dropbox link.
Thank you for your time and please let me know if you have any questions about our upcoming online conference.
