### Code of Conduct ###

Register by Wednesday, January 28, 2026 to take advantage of early-bird rates!

The last day to register for the in-person MOUG meeting is Friday, February 20, 2026. Virtual attendees may register through Monday, February 23, 2026.

Registered attendees have access to both the virtual + in-person meeting in February, plus the half-day virtual session in May. The registration process is managed using CVENT in conjunction with the Music Library Association (MLA). NOTE: registration does not require an account with MLA or CVENT. You are NOT required to register for the MLA meeting. ALSO NOTE: There is no institutional registration option for MOUG virtual attendance in the CVENT platform. If your employer is looking to pay for multiple MOUG virtual attendees at once, please contact the MOUG Treasurer directly.

Be aware, the registration page for MOUG-only attendance looks nearly identical to the MLA+MOUG registration page. The difference is in the options in the Registration Type dropdown. Follow the instructions below carefully.

Registration Rates

• For MOUG Members: $95 Early / $145 Regular
• For Non-Members: $125 Early / $175 Regular
• For Special Categories (students, 1st-time attendees, paraprofessionals, hourly/non-salaried, part-time, or retirees, those facing financial adversity): $50 Early / $100 Regular
