Call for Proposals

ER&L Conference Program Planning Committee encourages you to submit a 
proposal for the Electronic Resources & Libraries 2009 Conference to be 
held February 10-12, 2009 with pre-conferences on February 9th. The 
conference location will be the campus of UCLA in Los Angeles, CA.

Proposal Deadline: Proposals will be evaluated as they are received, and 
priority may be given to those who submit early. The Proposal Deadline 
is October 15, 2008.

Proposal Evaluation: The committee will evaluate each proposal on the 
basis of subject matter (including, but not limited to, the issues 
listed in the topic descriptions), clarity, and timeliness. We will also 
hold a period of open voting to allow potential attendees to help shape 
the program. Proposals should be for original work that has not been 
published. We may request that some presenters combine sessions with 
complementary subject matter.

Compensation: Presenters receive 50% off the cost of registration.

More info: ER&L provides a forum for information professionals to 
explore ideas, trends, and technologies related to electronic resources 
and digital services. The idea of this event is to bring together 
stakeholders inside and outside of the library to look at the impact the 
digital environment has on library collections, access to resources, and 
our organizations. We invite various perspectives and approaches to 
managing, promoting and accessing electronic resources. We hope to 
foster collaborative, cross-departmental, cross-community approaches to 
the issues e-resources have brought to our environment.
