The Library Publishing Forum 2026 will take place June 17–18 at the University of Washington in Seattle. The annual conference brings together representatives from libraries engaged in publishing initiatives, along with university presses, vendors, and scholars, to discuss key challenges, collaborative opportunities, and community practices in library publishing. This year’s program is co-located with the Association of University Presses Annual Meeting (June 13–15) and a summit on university-based publishing in times of crisis (June 16). A new “Forum Friends” program will provide limited engagement opportunities for those unable to attend in person.
