Hello everyone,

SWIB26 is right around the corner! You can see the programme at https://forum.swib.org/t/swib26-programme/1728 .

We will start the main conference on Monday, Nov 16, at 2pm UTC with Mark Dingemanse's Keynote on "Interactional foundations for critical AI literacies".

In order to follow the discussions around the talks and to interact with other participants, please sign up to the SWIB forum at: https://forum.swib.org/signup .

This is also where you can sign up for any of the five workshop that might interest you and fits your sleep cycle (we tried to cover as many time zones as possible) last minute: https://forum.swib.org/t/workshops-swib26/1725 .

Note that you have the opportunity to sign up for a lightning talk at SWIB26 to share your latest projects or ideas in a short (3–5 min) presentation: https://forum.swib.org/t/swib26-lightning-talks/1792 .

SWIB focuses on Linked Open Data (LOD) in libraries and related organizations. It is well established as an event where IT staff, developers, librarians, and researchers from all over the world meet and mingle and learn from each other. The topics of talks and workshops at SWIB revolve around opening data, linking data and creating tools and software for LOD production scenarios. These areas of focus are supplemented by presentations of research projects in applied sciences, industry applications, and LOD activities in other areas.
