[Nhcoll-l] 2026 Digital Data Conference Abstract Deadline is this Friday

[Nickson Otieno]

Hi Libby,
 I have registered and received an order ticket through mu email inbox but
when I try to use the abstract submission form link provided in the ticket
message so as to submit my abstract, I get a message that my browser cant
use google drive. Doe the submission process/system for the conference
insist on the use of a google drive?
Please advice on what alternative pathway |I can sue to submit the abstract
by the deadline date set
Regards
Nickson
