The BCC Program Committee is pleased to announce that the program for the 2021 BitCurator Users Forum and Educators' Summit is live and registration is open!

Preliminary Program is Live!
The Forum and BitCuratorEdu Educators' Summit program is now available on the BitCurator Consortium website

Sessions will be non-concurrent (single-stream) and will run live starting between 8AM PST/ 11AM ET. Each day will include a variety of opportunities for engagement including workshops, lightning talks, and themed sessions on Remote Workflows, Iteration and Scalability, BitCurator, Access and Discoverability, and Tools & Demos Showcase. We also have a few special sessions this year! We’ll do a rerun of our popular "Great Question!" session where attendees can ask anonymous questions in an open forum, and two Birds Of A Feather sessions for BIPOC attendees and Students and New Professionals.

About the BitCurator Users Forum

The BitCurator Users Forum brings together representatives from libraries, archives, museums, and related information professions engaged in or considering digital archival work to acquire, better understand, and make available born-digital materials. The three-day forum will balance discussion of theory and practice of digital archiving and related digital analysis workflows with hands-on activities for users at all levels of experience with digital archival methods in general, including the BitCurator environment, and other tools for use in digital analysis and curation.
