The Forum Committee welcomes proposals for full-day pre-conferences, concurrent sessions, or poster sessions related to all types of libraries: public, school, academic, government, special, and corporate. Collaborative and interactive concurrent sessions, such as panel discussions or short talks followed by open moderated discussions, are especially welcomed. We deliberately seek and strongly encourage submissions from underrepresented groups, such as women, people of color, the LGBT community and people with disabilities.
The Submission deadline is Friday April 29, 2016.
Proposals could relate to, but are not restricted to, any of the following topics:
- Discovery, navigation, and search
- Practical applications of linked data
- Library spaces (virtual or physical)
- User experience
- Emerging technologies
- Cybersecurity and privacy
- Open content, software, and technologies
- Assessment
- Systems integration
- Hacking the library
- Scalability and sustainability of library services and tools
- Consortial resource and system sharing
- “Big Data” — work in discovery, preservation, or documentation
- Library I.T. competencies
Vendors wishing to submit a proposal should partner with a library representative who is testing/using the product.
Presenters will submit final presentation slides and/or electronic content (video, audio, etc.) to be made available on the web site following the event. Presenters are expected to register and participate in the Forum as attendees; a discounted registration rate will be offered.
If you have any questions, contact Tammy Allgood Wolf, Forum Planning Committee Chair, at tammy.wolf@asu.edu.
