Call For Program/Poster Proposals
Do you have a great project, skill set or idea to share with your academic library community? Faced a challenge or implemented a solution that would benefit your library colleagues? Consider submitting a presentation or poster proposal for the Michigan Library Association Academic Libraries Conference to be held May 28 and 29, 2015 in Bay City, Michigan.
We’re interested in thoughtful proposals on topics in every area of librarianship, addressing the range of issues of critical concern to academic libraries. We’d like representation across the spectrum of academic librarianship: from the development of BibFrame to the expansion of PDA/DDA, from new methods of electronic resource management to the integration of MOOCS, to ARL’s ‘New Roles for New Times’ liaison model. Broad participation is encouraged from librarians, staff and administrators from all types of academic libraries (including but not limited to public universities, private colleges and community colleges).
