CALL FOR PROPOSALS

ER&L Conference Planning Committee encourages you to submit a 
proposal for the 2012 Electronic Resources & Libraries 
Conference!

http://www.electroniclibrarian.com/presenters/call-for-proposals

________________________________________

ER&L is seeking to advance the discussion in these following 
areas with this 2012 Call for Proposals, with detailed 
descriptions included below:

*Managing e-Resources in Libraries
*Collection Development and Assessment
*Workflow & Organizations
*External & User Relationships
*Emerging and Future Technologies
*Scholarly Communication & Licensing
*Library as Publisher

Proposal Evaluation: The committee will evaluate each proposal on 
the basis of subject matter (including, but not limited to, the 
issues listed in the topic descriptions), clarity, and 
timeliness. We will also hold a period of open voting to allow 
potential attendees to help shape the program. Proposals should 
be for original work that has not been published. We may request 
that some presenters combine sessions with complementary subject 
matter.

Proposal Types: ER&L is looking for individual presentations, 
panels with differing perspectives, and half day, hands-on 
preconference workshops.  When submitting a proposal, choose one 
proposal type.
