Will there be a book signing event this year (2023)?
We really loved the grassroots vibe of the 2022 nErDCampLI. It was truly educator driven event and it was amazing to see so many best practices shared by teachers who are willing to help inspire others. Again, we are not opposed to bringing back the book signing event, but we are still trying to determine the best way of doing so.

Why no book sale and signing this year (2022)?
There are several reasons we are not having the book signing event, but know that we are not opposed to bringing it back in the future. Not only is it a monumental undertaking we are easing back into an in person event. Most importantly, we want to focus on participant driven learning and to refuel our passion for teaching, learning and all things literacy.
We believe in the power of books and the ripple effect of book love. In an attempt to help get books in the hands of teachers and kids, we are pleased to announce that we have the generous support of Bookelicious, who will be providing all participants with a discount code to apply to purchases made during and after the event.

I am an author/illustrator, can I still attend the event (2022 &2023)?
Yes, we hope you will. It is a great way to connect and collaborate with educators in the region. All authors and illustrators who are interested in attending please register for the event using Eventbrite. Reach out via email for additional questions.
