Call for Conference Reports: Serials Spoken Here

Dear Colleagues:


The “Serials Spoken Here” column in Serials Review is actively seeking
contributors to submit conference reports for upcoming conferences. This is
a suggested starting point but not an exhaustive list of conference
opportunities:



   -

   Coverage of any session welcome from: NISO Plus666, ER&L, Charleston
   Asia, NASIG, Acquisitions Institute.
   -

   Coverage of sessions pertaining to the broad topic of serials are
   welcome from: BOBCATSSS, UKSG, MDG Conference, Society for Scholarly
   Publishing Annual Meeting, ALA Core Interest Group Week, ELUNA, Copyright
   Conference, CAIS-ACSI, ALA Annual, or any local or regional conference
   session focusing on serials.


If you have questions about the relevance of a conference or session,
please reach out to the editors.


*Conference reports are 750 words or less. *


We welcome poster session recaps, as well. To complete a poster session
recap, please focus on one poster per session that is germane to the very
broad topic of “serials.” Please review the text of the poster as well as
engage with the presenter about this topic, however that looks for you
(in-person discussion, email conversation, reviewing any material linked
from the poster, etc.).


Writing for “Serials Spoken Here” is an excellent way to inform colleagues
who were unable to attend conferences, as well as complete a publication
goal that could count towards tenure and promotion or continuing
appointment. After submission it can take up to six months for your recap
to be published in Serials Review.


When you submit your conference report, please add your ORCID iD (

If you do not have an ORCID iD, please seriously consider creating one.
