2020 Forum Call for Proposals
Submission Deadline: March 30, 2020
November 19-21, 2020
Baltimore, Maryland
Renaissance Baltimore Harborplace Hotel
Do you have an idea or project that you would like to share? Does your library have a creative or inventive solution to a common problem? Submit a proposal for the 2020 LITA/ALCTS/LLAMA Forum! Submission deadline is March 30th.
Our library community is rich in ideas and shared experiences. The 2020 Forum Theme embodies our purpose to share knowledge and gain new insights by exploring ideas through an interactive, hands-on experience. We hope that this Forum can be an inspiration to share, finish, and be a catalyst to implement ideas… together.
We invite those who choose to lead through their ideas to submit proposals
for sessions or
preconference workshops, as well as nominate keynote
speakers. This is an opportunity to share your ideas or unfinished work,
inciting collaboration and advancing the library profession forward through
meaningful dialogue.
We encourage diversity in presenters from a wide range of background, libraries, and experiences. We deliberately seek and strongly encourage submissions from underrepresented groups, such as women, people of color, the LGBTQA+ community, and people with disabilities. We also strongly encourage submissions from public, school, and special libraries.
Vendors wishing to submit a proposal should partner with a library representative who is testing/using the product.
Presenters will submit final presentation slides and/or electronic content (video, audio, etc.) to be made available online following the event. Presenters are expected to register and participate in the Forum as attendees.
