ER&L 2014 | AUSTIN, TX | MARCH 16-19, 2014 -- Electronic Resources and Libraries 2014 is off and running. In this quick update, we encourage e-resources professionals to submit a proposal and to take advantage of early bird rates for ER&L 2014, March 16-19, 2014. Read on for details. 

SUBMIT A PROPOSAL TO #erl14 -- The ER&L Program Planning Committee (PPC) has released the list of ER&L Tracks to frame the 2014 conference and to reflect some of the changes taking place in the eResources world. The field is maturing now that we’ve been managing eResources for 15 years+.  Nevertheless, managing electronic resources is a challenge, whether you’re new to it or have been engaged in it for years.  Tracks reflect topics of interest to a variety of library types and sizes. We encourage you to submit an idea for a 4 hour workshop (Deadline: September 10) or submit a session proposal (Deadline: November 12) here: http://www.electroniclibrarian.com/
