Call for Proposals: CLA Conference 2007

You are invited to submit a proposal for the 2007 CLA Conference. The conference is scheduled for October 26-29, 2007 in Long Beach (earlier dates than usual!). You should submit your proposal at http://cla2007.abstractcentral.com.

This year's conference theme is "Opportunity Knocks." The Conference Planning Committee is interested in programs that demonstrate the vision, energy and creativity behind extraordinary library service to all population groups. The committee is particularly interested in sessions that will help library staff develop the skills and programs needed for 21st Century librarianship and libraries. One of the goals of this year's conference is to present programs "out of the box," programs that suggest new ideas in all areas of service. Some topics that have been suggested include:

While you are not limited to the above suggestions, we are interested in cutting-edge proposals that will inspire and inform the library community. Proposals specific to all service areas are needed. Do you have a fresh, new idea? We want to hear from you!

For the first time, all proposals must be submitted electronically online. The deadline for submissions is Wednesday, February 28, 2007.

Please let us know if you have questions about the process for submission or about the conference. If you have problems using the submittal website, a Tech Support button is located on each webpage. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me at snegreen@cla-net.org.
