I'm trying to find a ballpark price for budgeting purposes for an in-person conference (just for conference registration). I can't find any of my stuff from Worcester, so does anyone have any idea? What are JCL staff reading? Check it out on our blog, JCL Reads <https://jclreads.blogspot.com/>!

Kate, Speaking as someone who used to budget for face-to-face conferences, I would do a ballpark budget of $2500 to include hotel, transportation, registration, and food. A lot depends on when flights are booked. And whether registration is early bird or not.

Between lodging, flights, and per diem, I'm up to $2,500 already and that doesn't include conference registration yet (hotel is understandably pricier in the Seattle area)!

I'd probably go to $3000 then. A lot also depends on your local policies - per diem vs. reimbursement, etc. I'm not sure what the registration will be, but it will likely be more than $250. On Wed, Jun 25, 2025 at 1:05 PM Kate Coleman <kcoleman@jeffcolib.org> wrote:

Is this for the Evergreen Conference? In 2023 registration was $250 for full conference and $80 pre-conference. https://evergreen-ils.org/conference/2023-evergreen-international-conference...
