The conference will be held at the Infrahuis Noord. More information about Groningen, hotels, etc. can be found on the local information page of the conference website: http://conference.conlang.org/lcc4/local.php On the evening of Friday, May 13th there will be an informal social gathering to let everyone get to know each other before the main event. Please arrive early if you would like to participate. PROGRAM The Language Creation Conference features two days of talks, conference-style presentations, panels and workshops. It will also feature the unveiling of the LCC4 relay. If you want to participate in the LCC4 relay (whether or not you will attend LCC4 in person), please send an e-mail to dave@dedalvs.com. The LCS is still seeking presenters for LCC4. Talks are either 45 minutes (for topics that are of general interest to conlangers), or 15 minutes (for topics that are focused on a single conlang). You can also submit a "poster", which can be nearly any display that will fit in the conference space. For more information, please see our call for papers at http://conference.conlang.org/lcc4/call.php If you're interested in presenting, please e-mail conference@conlang.org. If there is a presenter you would like to see, or you have an idea for a talk, panel or workshop, please email conference@conlang.org with your suggestions. LCC4 PRICING AND REGISTRATION These subsidized admission fees cover attendance, snacks, drinks, and lunch for both days of the conference. Non-LCS Members: =E2=82=AC60 (=E2=89=88 $80) LCS Members: =E2=82=AC45 (=E2=89=88 $61) As always, nobody will be refused entrance to the LCC for lack of funds. If the standard rates are too high for you for any reason, just let us know (we won't ask for details) and contribute what you can. To register, please go to http://conference.conlang.org/lcc4/register.php LCS MEMBERSHIP Student LCS Membership: $25 (=E2=89=88 =E2=82=AC19) Regular LCS Membership: $35 (=E2=89=88 =E2=82=AC26) We recently introduced, per the suggestion of a prospective member, a $10 discount on LCS membership for students. Anyone under 18 or enrolled (full or part time) towards a high school or undergraduate degree qualifies. To obtain this discount, just indicate when joining why you qualify (i.e. how old you are if under 18, or what school you are enrolled in). In addition to a =E2=82=AC15 discount on the conference fee, LCS membership has other benefits (e.g. free webspace, and two of your own yoururl.conlang.org websites). Of course, the primary reason to join is to support the work of the LCS - in hosting this conference as well as everything else we do. To join, or for more information on the benefits of LCS membership, please go to http://conlang.org/members.php THE LCC IN EUROPE The actual cost to us of hosting the conference, per person, is approximately =E2=82=AC75. As such, attendees paying the standard rates abo= ve are being subsidized by the donations and LCS membership fees of others. We made a commitment to our membership and to LCC attendees long ago to host an LCC in Europe, and we plan to make good on that commitment, even if we lose ~$1,000 (about half our annual income), as we are currently anticipating. We also still believe in our policy of ensuring that lack of money should not be a barrier to attendance. That said, if we don't at least approximately break even on LCC4, we may not be financially able to hold an LCC in Europe again. We would very much like to do so, but there is only so much we can do as an organization with a small pool of resources, and there are other things that we would like to be able to spend our limited resources on (such as an editor for the LCS podcast, publication of our upcoming journal Fiat Lingua, etc). Therefore, if you are able, please donate to the LCS to help support this conference. We suggest a donation of =E2=82=AC15-30, to cover the cost shortfall for 1-2 people's attendance (your own, if you're attending). Donations can be made at http://conlang.org/donate.php or at the door. Please email lcs@conlang.org for alternate payment methods. Donators of more than =E2=82=AC30 will be thanked for their generosity in t= he conference program (anonymously, if they prefer). We would also greatly appreciate donations of labor or technology for the conference, or conlanger-related goods for a silent auction. Please email conference@conlang.org to let us know what you have to contribute. We want to be sure to get as many attendees as possible so please help us by getting the word out as widely as you can=E2=80=94especially to those conlangers living in Western Europe! QUESTIONS? COMMENTS?
