Dear Colleague:
The College and Research Division of the Pennsylvania Library Association
(PaLA) invites you to submit a proposal for the PaLA Annual Conference, to
be held November 9 – 12, 2008 at the Valley Forge Convention
Center/Scanticon Hotel in King of Prussia. The 2007 conference at State
College was a great success for academic librarians (see conference notes on
our division blog to refresh your memory:
http://crd-pala.blogspot.com/).
We welcome both individual presentations as well as proposals for panels.
Proposals can be for single sessions (60 – 75 minutes) or double sessions.
We hope to see a topics addressing the amazing range of challenges and
opportunities in academic libraries.
*THIS YEAR’S DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF PROPOSALS IS APRIL 15, 2008.
*All proposals will be accepted via PaLA’s online proposal form.
However, because proposals cannot be changed/updated once they have been
submitted, PaLA has created the form in a PDF (attached to this message) to
be used as a working copy before using the online version.
In order to separate the proposal offerings for each division, a specific
collector for the CRD Division has been created. Please use this form:

I encourage you to contact me or other CRD board members if you’d like
discuss your conference program ideas.
Sincerely,
Christine Roysdon
Chair, College and Research Division, Pennsylvania Library Association PaLA
