Working Groups

DLF is built for grassroots action. A committed community gravitates to us from within and beyond DLF's institutional membership, working across boundaries of many kinds and making the Digital Library Federation a force for good.

DLF Forum

DLF programs stretch year-round, but we are perhaps best known for our signature event, the annual DLF Forum. DLF Forum welcomes digital library, archives, and museum practitioners from member institutions and beyond—for whom it serves as a meeting place, marketplace, and congress. As a meeting place, DLF Forum provides an opportunity for our working groups, and community members to conduct their business and present their work. As a marketplace, the Forum provides an opportunity for community members to share experiences and practices with one another and support a broader level of information sharing among professional staff. As a congress, the Forum provides an opportunity for the DLF to continually review and assess its programs and its progress with input from the community at large.

Learn@DLF

Learn@DLF is a day of workshops to cultivate creative training and professional development opportunities for attendees. Through engaging, hands-on sessions, attendees will experience with new tools and resources, exchange ideas, and develop and share expertise with fellow community members.
