MAC 2021: Archivists Respond

Call for Session, Poster, and Virtual Tour Proposals

The Program Committee for the MAC Annual Meeting, to be held virtually May
13-14, 2021, is excited to announce a call for sessions and posters that
explore the theme, Archivists Respond.

2020 had brought both challenges and opportunities to archivists. How have
archivists responded to the pandemic, budget cuts, remote work, shutdowns,
and civic unrest? What opportunities were represented to archivists, such
as community engagement, working on backlogs, and focus on digital
projects? What other clouds and silver linings have archivists encountered
in their work? What work and projects have archivists undertaken that adapt
to cultural, societal, and environmental changes?

Have an idea but need collaborators? Connect with colleagues to brainstorm
session proposals
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/173rpD5YwwLgZzwHsV-oreerh7q6JC8vC8XJbgfmXBSI/edit?usp=sharing>
or poster ideas
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RfC2HvSkKfTPNa4WgC4QHHY0RQhSpTCsWHbDOsdrkxY/edit?usp=sharing>.
Presenters may submit more than one proposal, but may present only one
session or poster.

As a new feature this year, we are also soliciting proposals for virtual
tours of your institution. This is a great opportunity for archival
institutions of all sizes and from all over over the MAC region to
participate in the conference and show off your spaces and / or
collections.

The deadline for submitting all proposals is Friday, January 15th at 5pm
CDT. For a list of possible topics, more details about the proposal
process, and the proposal submission forms, view the full CFP on the MAC
2021 Call for Proposals Website
