*ACRL/NY 2019 Annual Symposium: *
***CFP Deadline Extended to May 10, 2019***
ACRL/NY 2019 Annual Symposium:
Outside of the Box: Redefining Ethical Innovation in the Academic Library
For this year's ACRL/NY Symposium, we are seeking *presentations* and*
panels* about new and ethically informed practices in the academic library.
Potential topics include (but are not limited to):
● *Diverse voices in our profession*: enhancing diversity and
advocating for underrepresented groups at all levels in the academic
library, including staff, professionals, students and administration
● *Ethically Innovative Leadership: *for example, challenging
traditional hierarchies, incorporating different perspectives, navigating
organizational structures, labor relations, facilitative management and
support for professional growth and development
● *Public Services and Instruction*: new and creative types of
reference and instruction initiatives *(e.g. incorporating critical
pedagogy, environmentally responsible maker spaces, culturally responsive
instruction)*
● *Acquisitions/Collection Development*: outreach and curating of
collections *(e.g. community based collections, OER Open Education
Resources, responsible purchasing, ownership models) *
● *Technical Services*: transforming technical services; accommodating
new forms of technology, data, and strategic planning (*e.g.* *weeding
ethically,* *critical cataloging, accessibility)*
As academic libraries continue to evolve in the 21st century, ACRL
continues to be dedicated in discovering new approaches that enhance and foster
our scholarly community.
In what ways can libraries redefine instruction, services and collection
development in a manner that is thought-provoking, ethical and *innovative*?
This ongoing shift calls for change agents to curate, acquire, and build
upon competencies, while establishing fresh and transparent benchmarks.
Proposals should be 250-500 words in length, submitted by May 10, 2019 (new
deadline)
