Only one person per institute can apply for funding (EU and UK institutes only).

Conference Theme
The theme for the 2025 conference is: “Korean Studies Librarianship and Digital Humanities – Opportunities and Challenges for Librarians in Supporting the Next Generation of Korean Studies Scholars.”

Call for Guest Instructor
We are seeking a guest instructor librarian with expertise or significant experience in Digital Humanities. This role includes partial financial support, covering airfare and hotel accommodations.

Call for Presentations
We welcome presentation proposals related to the conference theme. Additionally, as the ENKRS conference serves as a rare networking opportunity for Europe-based Korean studies librarians, we encourage presentations from the ENKRS members addressing local conditions, collections, activities, and challenges in Korean studies librarianship.
