8th International Conference on Digital Libraries for Musicology (DLfM) 21

Wednesday 28 July - Friday 30 July

The Digital Libraries for Musicology (DLfM) conference presents a venue for those engaging with Digital Library systems and content in the domain of music and musicology. It provides a forum for musicians, musicologists, librarians, and technologists to share findings and expertise.

This year’s 8th DLfM conference will be held entirely online in association with the International Association of Music Libraries (IAML) Congress. The main programming for DLfM will take place Thursday, July 29th, with a joint paper session with IAML on Friday, July 30th, as well as a joint poster session on Wednesday July 28th. In bringing these two conferences together we aim to encourage new collaborations and foster larger group discussions surrounding prominent issues in the digital humanities. This year’s theme of “bridging the gap” is designed to bring together scholars working across the niche subfields of digital libraries and humanities, computational musicology, and MIR with the aim of broadening the understanding of the needs, obstacles, and optimal outcomes within each of these subfields in the DLfM community, and how outcomes in one area can best be applied to (or served by) another.

Thanks to the generous contributions of our sponsors this year, we are able to offer free registration to all DLfM attendees and participants. All participants must register here in advance of the conference. In order to ensure timely communication of pre-conference information (e.g., software requirements, links, etc.) for participation, we recommend registering ASAP but no later than July 14th.

We look forward to seeing you at DLfM 2021! For more information please visit our website.
