Indiana University's student chapter of the Society of American 
Archivists is proud to announce our second conference for students and 
beginning professionals, to be held on Saturday, March 6, 2010 at the 
Lilly Library and the Herman B. Wells Library in Bloomington, Indiana.

If you are a student in a library science, archives, or rare books 
program or have entered the profession within the previous three years, 
we invite you to submit your papers on topics related to archives, rare 
books, or special collections for presentation at the conference. In 
addition to paper sessions, the day-long conference will also include a 
workshop.

Each paper session will be just under an hour and will include two 
presenters. Each presenter will have approximately 20 to 25 minutes to 
speak, and the session will conclude with a ten to fifteen minute period 
for questions and answers.

To be considered as a presenter, please submit an abstract of 150 to 200 
words and a working title for your paper to  iusaaconference at gmail.com 
by *Monday, February 1, 2010*. Along with your abstract, please include 
your name, email address, institutional affiliation, and any 
audio/visual needs you may have.

The abstracts will be discussed and voted on in a blind judging process 
and you will receive an acceptance or rejection by February 8, 2010.

If your paper is accepted, you will be sent a more detailed registration 
form. At this time, you will also be asked to submit a registration fee 
of $15 to cover your breakfast and lunch. More details about meals, 
accommodations available in Bloomington, etc. will also be provided at
