  The 13th Symposium on Combinatorial Search (SoCS) was held May 26-28, 2020.
Originally scheduled to take place in Vienna, Austria, the symposium pivoted
toward a fully online technical program in early March. As an in-person event
SoCS offers participants a diverse array of scholarly activities including
technical talks (long and short), poster sessions, plenary sessions, a
community meeting and, new for 2020, a Master Class tutorial program.
  This paper describes challenges, approaches and opportunities associated with
adapting these many different activities to the online setting. We consider
issues such as scheduling, dissemination, attendee interaction and community
engagement before, during and after the event. We report on the approaches
taken by SoCS in each case, we give a post-hoc analysis of their their
effectiveness and we discuss how these decisions continue to impact the SoCS
community in the days after SoCS 2020.
