[Eril-l] Call for Conference Reports: Serials Spoken Here

[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

Dear Colleagues:

The "Serials Spoken Here" column in Serials Review is actively seeking contributors to submit conference reports for

  *   NASIG Autumn, Coverage of any session is welcome:  https://nasigautumn2025.sched.com
  *   The Charleston Conference, Coverage of any session is welcome: https://www.charleston-hub.com/the-charleston-conference/agenda/
  *   Acquisitions Institute at Timberline Lodge, Coverage of any session is welcome: https://acquisitionsinstitute.org/2025-program/
  *   ALA Core Forum, Coverage of sessions pertaining to serials only: https://2025coreforum.sched.com/list/simple
  *   or any local or regional conference session focusing on serials.

Conference reports are 750 words or less.

New for this "Serials Spoken Here" cycle: we are experimenting with poster session recaps. To complete a poster session recap, please focus on one poster per session that is germane to the very broad topic of "serials." Please review the text of the poster as well as engage with the presenter about this topic, however that looks for you (in-person discussion, email conversation, reviewing any material linked from the poster, etc.).

Writing for "Serials Spoken Here" is an excellent way to inform colleagues who were unable to attend conferences, as well as complete a publication goal that could count towards tenure and promotion or continuing appointment. After submission it can take up to six months for your recap to be published in Serials Review.

When you submit your conference report, please add your ORCID iD (https://orcid.org/). If you do not have an ORCID iD, please seriously consider creating one. This unique identifier will afford you the opportunity to keep track of your research output.

Please fill out this Google Form to claim your session(s): https://forms.gle/t6joi2FfF5qitpyo7  You may sign up for multiple sessions and different conferences. Please fill out the form separately for each. You'll get a copy of your responses. We will contact you to confirm your session(s). If needed we will provide a copy of the submission guidelines and a sample copy of a session recap. If your session has already been claimed we will contact you to arrange a different session.

If you have any questions please email both co-editors Michelle Colquitt (mcolqui at clemson.edu<mailto:mcolqui at clemson.edu>) and Melissa Zilic (mzilic at depaul.edu<mailto:mzilic at depaul.edu>).

This round of contributions will be due by December 1, 2025.

Thank you for considering this request.

On behalf of Serials Spoken Here,
