EBSS RESEARCH FORUM ? Call for Proposals (ALA Annual)

EBSS RESEARCH FORUM ? Call for Proposals (ALA Annual)

The Education and Behavioral Sciences Section Research Committee is holding its 8th Annual Research Poster Forum during the ALA Annual Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Research Forum and reception follows the announcement and speech of the 2014 award winner for APA Excellence in Librarianship, and will take place on the afternoon of Saturday June 28, 2014.

The Forum seeks to provide beginning and established researchers an opportunity to present research in progress, receive collaborative feedback on their work and recommendations for future publishing. Research / Posters will be simultaneously presented and discussed in small informal groups. Attendees at the forum will find an arena for discussion and networking with their colleagues interested in research related issues and trends in the profession. The committee will use a blind review process.

Proposals are due February 14, 2014.
