Save the Date! – "Social Responsibility, Democracy, Education, and
Professionalism" – ACRL/NY Annual Symposium – December 4, 2015
***Please excuse cross-posting***
Save the date! Mark your calendars! You won’t want to miss the 2015 ACRL/NY
Annual Symposium!
*When: Friday, December 4, 2015*
*Title:*
*“Social Responsibility, Democracy, Education, and
Professionalism:Supporting Core Values in Academic and Research
Librarianship”*
*The 2015 ACRL/NY Annual Symposium will use four of ALA's Core Values of
Librarianship
<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/statementspols/corevalues> as a
framework from which to pose questions. What does "social responsibility"
mean for academic librarians? How diverse are our libraries and archives,
and how democratic do we want them to be? How does supporting lifelong
learning and information literacy differ for academic libraries of
differing sizes, populations, and missions? How can we make time to grow
professionally, given our multiple roles and budget challenges? These and
other questions will be explored by noted speakers and panelists. Poster
sessions will be drawn from these themes and the remaining core values:
access, confidentiality and privacy, diversity, intellectual freedom,
preservation, the public good, and service.*
*A call for poster sessions will be coming soon!*
