This booklet is so detailed and comprehensive we’re not sure what they could have possibly forgotten to mention. Though the title states a focus on conferences, as the longer description suggests, organizers of other kinds of events like zine fests, art book fairs, craft markets, community learning events and info sessions, and all kinds of other gatherings will find a lot of useful food for thought here. Great information on selecting a venue, working with volunteers, staffing, food set up, and so much more. From the publisher:

Want to make your conference accessible, welcoming, and fun for all attendees? This zine is for you! In its pages, you’ll find practical tips, guidance, and templates from experienced conference organizer Dr. Alex D. Ketchum, author of How to Organize Inclusive Events. Whether you're organizing an academic symposium, an activist meeting, or a science fiction or comics con, creating an event where people with economic hardships, disabilities, and childcare responsibilities is key to a successful event. From location to conference website, cost to childcare, and many more accessibility details—you’ll be empowered with step-by-step guidance about how to put on a truly inclusive event where all conferees can feel welcome and fully a part of the community.
