| - Recipients are expected to handle any paperwork requirements for travel to Leeds, England, but if letters of support or invitation are necessary the IIIF Consortium will provide those upon request | ||
| - During the conference, recipients are expected only to be engaged participants, and there is no expectation of volunteer work | ||
| - Scholarship recipients will have the opportunity to present a lightning talk during the main conference session | ||
| - There will also be additional opportunities for contact and connection, including possible mentorship opportunities to be finalized closer to the date of the conference | ||
