CFP: European Studies Research Forum (ALA Annual - New Orleans - June 24, 2018)

CFP: European Studies Research Forum 
American Library Association Annual Conference, New Orleans, June 21-26, 2018

The ACRL European Studies Section will host its annual European Studies Research Forum at the ALA annual conference in New Orleans on Sunday, June 24th, from 8:30 to 10:00 a.m.

The ESS Research and Planning Committee invites proposals for presentations on research, including digital projects, related to any part or language of Europe. Topics do not need to be library-related.

The committee will consider proposals on research in-progress or recently completed projects.

Proposals must include:

  • Name and brief bio of the presenter(s)
  • Tentative title and 200-word abstract

The committee will evaluate the proposals based on the clarity of the topic and quality of the abstract.

Presentations will be limited to 15 minutes each for 3 presentations, followed by time for questions. The forum will offer the presenters an opportunity to discuss their research in an informal setting.

Please submit your proposal via email to the chair of the ESS Research and Planning Committee, Ms. Téa Rokolj (trokolj@uottawa.ca). The deadline for proposal submissions is March 31st. 

The proposals will be reviewed by the members of the committee who will choose 3 proposals for the forum.  All persons who submit a proposal will be contacted soon after the committee makes its decision by mid-April at the latest.
