Dear colleagues,



Share your best ideas and work with the national library community by
presenting a poster session at the 2015 ALA Annual Conference in San
Francisco!



The poster session committee encourages submissions from all types of
libraries and on any topic relevant to librarianship. Submissions may
include a description of an innovative library program; an analysis of a
solution to a problem; a report of a research study; or any other
presentation that would benefit the larger library community.



Poster session participants place materials such as pictures, data, graphs,
diagrams and narrative text on boards that are usually 4 x 8 feet. During
their assigned 1½ hour time periods, participants informally discuss their
presentations with conference attendees. Titles/abstracts from previous
years are available on ALA Connect: http://connect.ala.org/node/210160
(note that this site is only serving as an archive for previous Annual
Conference poster sessions – for information on this year's posters, go to:

The deadline for submitting an application is *February 6, 2015*.
Applicants will be notified by the end of March, after a double blind peer
review process, whether their submission has been accepted for presentation
at the conference. The 2015 ALA Annual Poster Sessions will be held *June
27 and 28, 2015 (the Saturday and Sunday of the conference) in the exhibits
hall.*
