[Eril-l] Reminder: ALCTS Creative Ideas in Technical Services Interest Group-Call for proposals for ALA 2015 Annual meeting

[Smith, Kelly]

The Creative Ideas in Technical Services Interest Group seeks discussion facilitators for roundtable discussions for its meeting at ALA Annual in 2015 held on June 28, 2015 at 3pm.

Housed within the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services division of ALA, the Creative Ideas in Technical Services Interest Group was created to provide a forum to discuss issues related to the evolution of technical services. The group is especially interested in considering interdependency between departments and the ways in which technical services impacts, and is impacted by, technology.

Roundtable discussions are small, informal group discussions intended to give participants the opportunity to network, discuss best practices, and share information. Table size for roundtable discussions is capped at 10 participants per table. Discussion facilitators are responsible for identifying and developing a topic, creating discussion questions, and facilitating a discussion at the American Library Association's Annual Meeting in San Francisco in June 2015.

Those interested in participating as a discussion facilitator should submit a proposal that includes:

*         The topic you wish to explore. Topics should relate to acquisitions, cataloging and classification, non-MARC metadata creation and remediation, or preservation.

*         How the topic you wish to explore applies to the evolution of technical services.

*         Three sample discussion questions.

Please submit your proposal by April 18, 2015 to Erin Leach at eleach at uga.edu<mailto:eleach at uga.edu>.

Thanks,

Erin
