Call for Presentations



ACRL/NY 2019 Annual Symposium
Outside of the Box: Redefining Ethical Innovation in the Academic Library

December 6, 2019
Baruch College, City University of New York (CUNY) (Baruch Vertical Campus)



For this year's ACRL/NY Symposium, we are seeking presentations and
panels about
new and ethically informed practices in the academic library.



Submission form: https://acrlnyforms.wufoo.com/forms/z159d4590a84pf1/


Potential topics include (but are not limited to):

   - Diverse voices in our profession: enhancing diversity and advocating
   for underrepresented groups at all levels in the academic library,
   including staff, professionals, students and administration
   - Ethically Innovative Leadership: for example,challenging traditional
   hierarchies, incorporating different perspectives, navigating
   organizational structures, labor relations, facilitative management
and support
   for professional growth and development
   - Public Services and Instruction: new and creative types of reference
   and instruction initiatives (e.g. incorporating critical pedagogy,
   environmentally responsible maker spaces, culturally responsive
    instruction
   - Acquisitions/Collection Development: outreach and curating of
   collections (e.g. community based collections, OER Open Education
   Resources, responsible purchasing, ownership models)
   - Technical Services: transforming technical services; accommodating new
   forms of technology, data, and strategic planning (e.g. weeding
   ethically, critical cataloging, accessibility)

As academic libraries continue to evolve in the 21st century, ACRL
continues to be dedicated in discovering new approaches that enhance and
foster our scholarly community.



In what ways can libraries redefine instruction, services, and collection
development in a manner that is thought-provoking, ethical and innovative?
This ongoing shift calls for change agents to curate, acquire, and build
upon competencies, while establishing fresh and transparent benchmarks.



Proposals should be 250-500 words in length, submitted by May 3, 2019.



Abstracts of presentations can be submitted using this form:
https://acrlnyforms.wufoo.com/forms/z159d4590a84pf1/


The ACRL/NY 2019 Symposium will be held on December 6, 2019, at the
Vertical Campus at Baruch College, City University of New York.
