Sponsorship

We are thrilled to invite you to join us as a sponsor at the 2022 Digital Library Federation (DLF) Forum, Learn@DLF pre-conference, NDSA’s Digital Preservation, and the Digitizing Hidden Collections (DHC) Symposium on October 9-13 in Baltimore, Maryland.

These events are multi-day experiences for learning, networking, and skill-building, working to inspire, connect, and share successes and failures with a dedicated community of digital library practitioners. After two years of meeting online due to the pandemic, we are eager to host a safe, inclusive, in-person event in Baltimore, MD, based on the guiding principle of gratitude.

Sponsoring the DLF Forum connects your brand to a multi-disciplinary cross-sector audience of professionals in the digital library, museum, archives, and cultural heritage fields, from project managers, technologists, and developers to administrators and service providers. The Forum has welcomed professionals from academic, art and cultural heritage, and non-profit organizations, government agencies, and more.

The DLF Forum convenes a community of deeply engaged, hands-on professionals seeking actionable and informative insights to inform decisions for their organizations. With over 20 years of Forum organizing experience, we know what it takes to drive value for our sponsors.

While the Forum is open to all, DLF has a robust membership community, consisting of over 160 organizations. Take advantage of the opportunity to meet this engaged community where they come together across these simultaneous events.
