    CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS
    SALA * 2014
    Assuring Access in Alabama Archives
    2014 Society of Alabama Archivists (SALA) Conference
    Date: November 14, 2014
    Place: University of Montevallo, Montevallo, Alabama


    In preparation of the 2014 meeting in Montevallo, Alabama, the Society of
    Alabama Archivists seeks presentation proposals. The theme of this year’s meeting
    is “Assuring Access in Alabama Archives.” You may address this theme in topics
    that can include, but are not limited to:

    Preservation * Arrangement and Finding Aids
    Outreach Initiatives * Digital and Social Media Technologies
    Surviving Lean Fiscal Years * Disaster Preparedness and Recovery
    Hidden Collections * The Future of Archives


    Sessions are typically about 50 minutes in length, including Q&A, and include 2-3
    presenters. This year we are also considering adding one or more “lightning round”
    sessions of up to 5 presenters, speaking 5 minutes each, with the rest of the time
    allotted for Q&A and discussion. For session proposals please include title, brief
    description, and the names of the organizer and each presenter with affiliation and
    contact information. For individual presentations please submit the same
    information listed above. A session will be created from individual papers.
    We also seek proposals for one or more sessions that will include presentations by
    students. We also encourage students to create posters on research projects or
    activities for a poster session and display.


    Please submit session and individual proposals to Rebekah Davis
    (lcarchives@knology.net) by September 5, 2014.
