APLA 2010 ANNUAL CONFERENCE
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
 
The Atlantic Provinces Library Association will hold its next annual conference in Saint John, New Brunswick, on May 13, 14 and 15, 2010.  The APLA 2010 Programming Committee is pleased to invite APLA members and other interested parties to submit program proposals for the 2010 conference. 
 
Our conference theme is "Riding the tide: adapting and thriving in a sea of change," which should offer lots of scope for topics.  Proposals can have a broad appeal or target public, academic, school or special libraries. Sessions may be suggested in any format, such as single speakers, panels or debates. 
 
Sessions on Friday and Saturday will be a maximum of 1 hour and 15 minutes. Proposals for a day long pre-conference session are also welcome.
