2006 LITA National Forum: Call for Proposals
Due date for proposals: December 15, 2005
The 2006 National Forum Committee seeks proposals for high quality concurrent sessions and/or poster sessions for the 9th annual LITA National Forum to be held at the Downtown Sheraton in Nashville, Tennessee October 26-29, 2006.
Theme: NetVille in Nashville: Web Services as Library Services
Libraries are increasingly being asked to provide services through the web. Often these services need to inter-operate with many disparate web environments. Web services and related standards offer an opportunity to provide these services to users. How do web services work together? How do they help us work together? What are some practical applications of web services as library services?
The Forum Committee is particularly interested in presentations that highlight specific technology implementations, in any type of library. Proposals on all aspects of library and information technology are welcome.
Possible proposal topics include, but are not limited to:
1. Non-Traditional/New Media (Streaming media, Wikis, blogs, Electronic books and journals*)
2. Digital Libraries (Resource linking strategies, Creating and sustaining digital libraries, Preservation of digital records*)
3. Authentication and Authorization (Digital Rights Management, Authentication/privacy, Services for remote patrons, Customization/personalization*)
4. Portals/Federated/Meta-Searching (Design and management of portals, Integrated access to resources, Search engines*)
5. Information architecture (Usability, Web services, Web application design and databases, Web content management*)
6. Emerging Technologies (Wireless technologies, Assistive technologies, New user services and new communities*)
7. Technology Management (IT Project Management, Forecasting, budgeting, and managing technological change, Knowledge sharing applications*)
8. Internet Law (Digital Copyright, Filtering Technology, Privacy*)
9. Open source software
10. Distance education and courseware
Presentations must have a technological focus and they must pertain to libraries and/or be of interest to librarians. Concurrent sessions are approximately 70 minutes in length.
Forum 2006 will also accept a limited number of poster session proposals. Presenters should indicate their interest in a poster session on their proposals.
Presenters are required to submit handouts one month in advance for the Forum notebook, and handouts will be made available on the Web site after the event.
