The ACRL Preconference Coordinating Committee invites proposals for the ACRL 2011 National Conference.
The deadline for proposals is May 10, 2010.
Preconferences are half-day or full-day programs that focus on a particular subject of interest to academic and research librarians. These programs should allow participants to develop a skill on a specific topic and should focus on interactive learning using a variety of presentation styles. Preconferences that offer practical tips and cutting-edge techniques, as well as programs that address one or more of the conference’s theme, are especially encouraged. Preconferences should be able to accommodate somewhere between 32-64 people.
Preconferences have separate registration fees, so please contact Margot Conahan at ACRL (312-280-2522; mconahan@ala.org) during the development of your proposal in order to develop a budget for your session.
Proposals should be submitted online through this form:

Please note that you may start and save an incomplete proposal, and edit or add additional information before the proposal deadline date.
