us as well, and we invite proposals that challenge what counts as success in our work. Overall, we seek proposals that explore how our profession can expand our ideas about impact, results, and what counts in a rapidly changing world. Among other topics, proposals

<h3><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Session Formats</span></strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">The Program Committee encourages submission of proposals that may include, but are not limited to, the following formats:</span></strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Panel Presentation. </span></strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Session consisting of a panel of three to five individuals discussing or presenting theories or perspectives on a given
topic. Session may consist of a series of prepared presentations or a moderated discussion and should include time for audience feedback. If giving prepared presentations, presentation titles should be provided and will be included in the program. A moderator
is required (this role may be performed by the chair); a commentator is optional.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Professional Poster Presentation.</span></strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> Report in which information is summarized using brief written statements and graphic materials, such as photographs,
charts, graphs, and/or diagrams mounted on poster board (if in person) or in a PDF document (if virtual). Presenters will be assigned a specific time during which they must be with their poster to discuss it with attendees if presenting in-person.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Lightning Talks.</span></strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> Session consisting of eight to ten lively and informative 5-minute talks. The session chair secures commitments from speakers
and compiles all presentation slides into one single presentation to ensure timely speaker transitions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Mix and Match</span></strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">. "Mix and Match" debuted in 2024 as a new proposal format that allows individuals to propose an individual talk rather than a
full session. Similar or complementary proposals will then be combined into one session. We hope this option will encourage individuals who have not previously submitted a proposal to do so and provide an opportunity to connect archivists who might not have
otherwise met one another. We will accept proposals for 5 or 20-minute presentations.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Alternative Format.</span></strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> Don't feel confined by the prescribed formats-suggest an alternative or create your own! Alternative format sessions may
take a variety of forms. Examples include world café and fishbowl discussions. Propose a moderated debate offering opposing points of view, or an "experiential" format involving simulation, role play, or games to convey key principles and learning objectives.
We welcome your creative ideas about how your topic might best be addressed! Proposals in this category must: 1) specify the format and session facilitator and 2) describe briefly how the format will enhance the presentation of the material. You may suggest
up to four presenters for the session.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Your format choice will not affect the Program Committee's decision. The Committee may, however, recommend the proposed format be changed if it believes that a different format may better serve the session's learning
objectives or desired audience.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
