The papers will not be formally peer reviewed. Instead, a panel of SLA members will evaluate abstracts of the papers. Authors whose abstracts are accepted will be asked to write the paper.
Topics of the papers should be related to library science, information management, research or other issues related to the work of special libraries. Abstracts also will be judged on substance, potential member interest, and relevance to the conference theme (Where Tradition and Transformation Converge) or to the SLA tag line (Connecting People and Information).
Authors need not be in academia, but the author (or at least one co-author) must be a member of SLA.
