Community Code of Conduct
All delegates, speakers, sponsors, and volunteers at Bibliotheca Baltica Symposium are required to adhere to the following code of conduct. Organizers will enforce this code throughout the event.
The event organisers are dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion. We do not tolerate harassment of event participants in any form. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for any event venue, including talks. Event participants violating these rules may be expelled from the event without a refund at the discretion of the event organisers.
Harassment includes, but is not limited to:
– Violent threats, intimidation or personal insults directed against another person
– Verbal, graphic or written comments related to gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race or religion
– Posting sexually explicit or violent material
– Stalking or following, including harassing photography or recording
– Sustained disruption of talks or other presentations
– Inappropriate physical contact or sexual attention
– Posting (or threatening to post) other people’s personally identifying information
– Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior
– Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop, then stop
If you experience inappropriate behaviour or harassment at the event, please report it to the staff. The organisers offer help and support in any case of harassment. The hosts’ job description also includes resolving harassment cases together with security.
If the situation cannot be resolved, the individual exhibiting inappropriate behavior will be discreetly and unobtrusively removed from the event.
