The ALCTS Interest Group, Role of the Professional Librarian in Technical Services (RPLTS-IG) is seeking proposals for presentations at ALA Midwinter 2018 in Denver, CO. RPLTS-IG will meet on Saturday, Feb. 10th, from 10:30am -- 11:30am.

 

This year’s Midwinter tagline is “The conversation starts here”, and to capitalize on that concept, we are particularly interested in proposals that invite librarians in technical services to think about the changes happening in library technical services and to prepare themselves for the changes. Presenters will be allotted approximately 20 minutes, with a short time for questions after the presentations.

 

Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:

·  Trends in library technical services

·  Opportunities and challenges librarians in technical services are facing

·  Causes of the changes happening in library technical services

·  New skills technical librarians need to develop

 

If you are interested in presenting, please email Michelle (mihahn@indiana.edu) and Tiewei (tieweil@csufresno.edu) your presentation topic and brief description by Oct.31, 2017.

 

Thank you!
