We’re seeking volunteers with a wide variety of skills and backgrounds to join the Program
Committee to plan the 2020 LD4 Conference: May 13th and 14th, 2020, in College Station,
Texas, USA, at the Texas A&M Hotel and Conference Center at Texas A&M University.
The Linked Data for Production initiative, supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation,
is hosting this conference to bring together anyone passionate about the adoption of
linked data in libraries.

Our contemporary venue accommodates up to 200 people, with flexibility for multiple
simultaneous activities and proximity to local cultural attractions. What kind of
community meeting space would you like to create? How can this community gathering best
advance the adoption of linked data in all kinds of libraries? Join the Program Committee
and shape an event you are excited to participate in!

To serve on the Program Committee, you should plan to attend the conference in College
Station, Texas on May 13th and 14th, 2020, and be available for bi-weekly teleconference
calls beginning in September.

Fill in this short form by September 6th to indicate your interest in joining the Program
Committee. Committee members will be selected based on a diversity of skills, interests,
and backgrounds and will be notified by September 13th.

For those not joining the Program Committee, keep an eye out for a call for proposals and
other announcements about the 2020 LD4 Conference!
