Denise McFarlin, ATLA Meeting Specialist, was happy to clear her wall filled with conference proposals from the 2017 ATLA Annual Conference to make room for your ATLA 2018 proposals (see the video below if you don’t believe us).

To help in our effort of filling up her wall, we have extended the deadline for all submissions to Monday, October 2.

Join us in making the 2018 ATLA Annual Conference, happening June 13-16, 2018 in Indianapolis, Indiana, the best one yet!

How to Submit Your Conference Proposal

While we welcome proposals pertaining to all areas of librarianship, we are particularly interested in topics that relate to creative uses of technology, open access in relation to scholarly communications, intermediate or advanced level programs, and programs that apply to religious studies bibliographers working in university settings.

Proposals should be made in one of the following categories:

• Conversation Groups
• In-Conference Workshops
• Interest Group Presentations
• Listen & Learn Sessions
• Panel Presentations
• Papers
• Posters or Other Special Sessions
• Pre-Conference Workshops

If accepted this proposal will be published as submitted in conference promotions, including the official Conference Program Book. Before submitting, please proofread and use single space only.

Proposals should include a title that captures the scope of the session; an abstract of no more than 200 words outlining the significance and focus of the presentation; and the name(s), e-mail address(es), and institution(s) of the presenter(s).
