The J.Y. Joyner Library SHRA Assembly will host its Annual Paraprofessional Conference virtually May 11-13, 2021 (dates and times will be finalized by the number of proposals accepted). This year's online conference is a multi-day event aimed at providing instruction and information for library paraprofessionals in support of their work. We are celebrating our 17th consecutive annual conference with a focus on Technology & Cyber Awareness throughout academic, public, and professional library systems. At this time, the planning committee would like to extend a call for proposals.
We would be honored if you would consider submitting a presentation or a poster session for our conference held on May 11-13, 2021:
- Technology & Cyber Awareness is the 2021 conference theme.
- Adherence to the theme is suggested, but not mandatory, and a wide range of topics will be considered.
- Session lengths are 45 minutes and should include time left for discussion.
- The final conference schedule will be determined by the number of proposals accepted.
- Deadline for submitting a proposal is Wednesday, February 17, 2021.
