Call for Proposals: ARLIS/NA

Have you written a paper or completed a project on art librarianship? Paper proposals for the New Voices in the Profession session at the 2018 Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA) conference in New York, N.Y. are now being accepted! The session will be held on February 26. 

New Voices in the Profession showcases exceptional academic work by students and new professionals (under 5 years post MLS). Paper topics should relate strongly to art and/or visual resources librarianship, but also digital library projects, archives, library instruction, reference and the changing nature of libraries, among other topics. Paper topics that relate to the conference theme “Out of Bounds” and highlight how the profession is influenced by outside disciplines will be given special consideration.

To see papers presented in past sessions, please view conference proceedings from previous years on the ARLIS website (https://www.arlisna.org/news/conferences). Papers will be selected by representatives from ArLiSNAP and the ARLIS/NA Professional Development Committee.

If interested, please submit the following to Meredith Hale at [email protected] by November 27, 2017:

• Presentation title
• Presentation abstract (250 words
• Your name, institutional affiliation, and email address
