2020 SC/MLA Virtual Annual Meeting: Submit Paper & Poster Abstracts by October 4!

The SC/MLA Programming Committee invites you to submit proposals for contributed papers and posters for the SC/MLA Virtual Annual Meeting in November 2020.

Crossroads: Libraries and Southern Culture

Our profession, our professional lives, and even our personal lives as Southerners have come to a crossroads. What are the challenges we face in our libraries, in health information, research, and leadership? What steps have we taken to meet those challenges? What paths have we chosen, and with whom have we chosen to partner as we go forward? How do our Southern roots and culture inform and shape our past, current, and future paths? Explore these themes in our presentations, posters, and paper sessions.

Please submit a blinded abstract through this form following the structured abstract format by MLA's Research Section. There is a 300-word maximum. The blinded abstract, which will be used in a blind review process, must not include any specific information that would identify authors or institutions. The deadline for paper and poster abstract submissions is Sunday, October 4, 2020.
