Call for ALCTS program and preconference proposals for
ALA Annual 2013
The ALCTS Program Committee invites proposals for ALCTS
programs and preconferences for ALA Annual 2013 in Chicago, Illinois. The dates
of the 2013 Annual Conference are June 27-July 2.
If you're interested in planning a preconference or
program, please complete the appropriate web form (see below) and plan to visit
with the Program Committee during ALA Annual 2012 in Anaheim. Appointments with the committee usually take
about 15 minutes. The committee and ALCTS staff will help refine your ideas and
coordinate logistics. You don't need to
have all the details when you initially fill out the proposal form or visit the
committee to pitch your idea. And
although programs or preconferences often originate with ALCTS sections,
committees, or interest groups, they can also come from individuals or other
groups.
Beginning with Annual 2013, all program time slots are
either 60 or 90 minutes. All ALCTS
programs take place during Annual Conference in Chicago on Saturday, Sunday, or
Monday.
In-person preconferences (may be 1 day or 2 days) take
place in Chicago on the Thursday and/or Friday immediately prior to Annual
Conference.
