Charleston Conference - Call for Papers
From:
"Gilson, Thomas V" <GilsonT_at_cofc.edu>
Due to overwhelming demand, the Charleston Conference has decided to
extend our Call for Papers deadline to Friday, July 13th.
The form is online at
http://www.katina.info/conference/callforpapers.php. We are looking for
proposals that tie into our theme for 2012, *"Accentuate the
Positive!"* The main conference will be held from Thursday, November 8,
through Saturday, November 10, and we are seeking proposals for the
following sessions:
* *Lively Lunches*: 75 minute sessions on Thurs or Fri, focused on
audience interaction and discussion
* *Concurrent Sessions*: 45 minute sessions on Thurs or Fri, standard
presentation with 5-10 minutes for Q&A.
* *Innovation Sessions*: 30 minute sessions on Saturday, focused on
new technology, innovations, etc.
* *Poster Sessions*: 90 minute sessions on Thurs or Fri, 6 ft. table
and chairs provided. You are responsible for bringing your own
poster and display board appropriate for table top display.
* *Shotgun Sessions*: 6 minute, 40 second PowerPoint presentations of
20 slides at 20 seconds each. A group of topically related Shotgun
Sessions will be grouped together in a single concurrent session
time slot.
Specifically, we'd like to have a series of Shotgun Sessions (short,
Petcha Kutcha-like sessions of 6 minutes, 20 seconds each) relating to
success stories in the library. Our other topical threads are listed on
the proposal form.
Please contact Leah Hinds with any questions at leah_at_katina.info
