CALL FOR POSTER SESSION PROPOSALS (NASIG Annual Conference)

NASIG 23rd Annual Conference, June 5-8, 2008
Tapatio Cliffs Hilton Resort, Phoenix, Arizona


The NASIG Program Planning Committee (PPC) invites poster session proposals for the 23rd Annual NASIG conference in Phoenix, Arizona, June 5-8, 2008. The theme of the conference is "Taking the Sting Out of Serials." Posters will be on display 9:30-5:30 on Friday, June 6th. Presenters should be available to discuss their topics during two break periods during this day.

Poster sessions provide an opportunity to share innovative ideas and new applications of technology. Sessions may present a report of a research study, an analysis of a practical problem-solving effort, or a description of an innovative program that may be of interest to the serials community. In keeping with NASIG's tradition of non-commercialism, poster sessions focusing solely on a commercial product will not be accepted. Additional guidelines for poster sessions are available:
http://www.nasig.org/public/postersguidelines.html.

Deadline for submission: Applications must be received by 5 p.m. EST on Thursday, March 15, 2008. Members of the PPC's Sub-committee on Poster Sessions will evaluate abstracts.
Presenters will be notified by April 2, 2008.
