Apologies for any cross-postings----- As a member of the ACRL 2017 Panel Sessions Committee, I would like to invite you to submit a proposal (or more than one!) for a panel discussion of your favorite topic at the ACRL 2017 Conference (http://conference.acrl.org/) in Baltimore. A panel session offers an opportune occasion for two to four presenters to engage in a cohesive and productive conversation about a topic of importance to academic libraries and librarianship. Lasting 60 minutes (including time for Q&A), the discussion proves effective in prompting the audience to think about the topic and/or share insights from different perspectives. Conference tags (http://conference.acrl.org/conference-content/conference-tags/) are available to stimulate your thinking and position your proposal within the conference theme. Proposals for traditionally underrepresented topics such as scholarly communication,technical services, and technology are especially welcome! Information about submitting a proposal is online at: http://conference.acrl.org/conference-content/how-to-submit/
When you are ready for the submission, start the process here: https://s4.goeshow.com/acrl/national/2017/abstract_submission.cfm The submission deadline is May 6, 2016. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Best, Robert ********************************** Robert H.
