[OPLINLIST] Association of Bookmobile and Outreach Services program proposals

[MBUCKNER]

The Association of Bookmobile and Outreach Services is now accepting program proposals for "Thinking Outside the Walls" the 2012 annual conference (October 10-12, 2012) in Richmond, Virginia.  Winning proposals will receive one free conference registration.  There may be additional funds available for special needs.

The ABOS Conference Program Committee will review all submissions. Selected programs may be scheduled twice; therefore presenters should be prepared to deliver the program twice during the conference. 

 

Conference attendees range from new library employees to managers with years of experience; therefore our program offerings need to cover a broad range of topics.

The ABOS Conference Program Committee is also willing to consider proposals from individuals outside of the organization.  If you can recommend someone, please forward this email to them, or reply with the individual's contact information and his/her area of expertise, and the committee will contact him/her directly.

 

The deadline for submissions is March 16, 2012.

 

You have valuable information to share with your colleagues, so please consider submitting a program proposal today! 

 

You may submit your proposal by going to the ABOS website's 2012 Conference Page <http://www.abos-outreach.org/ABOSannual_conference.html>  and clicking on the "my conference proposal <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHMwSzhfZExyNDhoZk1DcGUyQXVscWc6MA#gid=0> " link, or by simply clicking here <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHMwSzhfZExyNDhoZk1DcGUyQXVscWc6MA#gid=0> . If you have any questions regarding the form or require more information regarding the conference, please feel free to contact me directly by any means listed below.
