ALCTS Exchange

 

The ALCTS Exchange is extending its call for virtual poster presentations until March 17, 2017

The ALCTS Exchange virtual poster session offers the opportunity to share and promote work, research, and ideas across the ALCTS Exchange’s topical themes: new roles and workflows, creative problem solving, creating connections with user communities, and building skills to prepare for the future. We are especially interested in highlighting work that addresses the intersections of collections and technical services and diversity and inclusion.

The ALCTS Exchange will include two poster presentation opportunities:

  • A poster lightning round session on May 11, wherein each presenter will have five minutes to speak, followed by a Q&A discussion forum.
  • A virtual poster collection and discussion forum available to Exchange registrants. File formats are not limited to static documents and presenters are encouraged submit videos and other types of media files. If you would like to submit a recorded video for the virtual poster collection, the ALCTS office will be available to assist with your recording.

ALAO call for Challenging Jacks of all Trades proposals

Journal Icon

At CMLE, many of our members are solo library people or working with small numbers of colleagues. This leads us all to being good across all kinds of responsibilities in the library – a jack of all trades! So when I saw this call for articles on just this topic, I wanted to be sure everyone else got to see it to!

If you are interested in this proposal and would like to submit an article, but aren’t sure where to start or would like another set of eyes to look over your material – contact us at CMLE HQ! We are here to help you with this kind of project!
