UKSG Annual Conference - Call for Topics

As you may know, the UKSG runs a very successful annual conference in
April of each year. For the first time we are inviting suggestions for
topics and speakers for the next conference in Torquay, UK to be held on
the 30th March-1st April 2009.

The conference is attended by librarians, publishers and intermediaries,
and addresses the standards, processes and technologies of scholarly
communication as well as community initiatives - for full details of our
audience, and feedback from previous conferences, please visit:
www.uksg.org/ <http://www.uksg.org/>

Suggestions should be in the format of a brief synopsis and ideas for
speakers to talk on that topic.  You may propose others as speakers and
we will contact them should the topic be picked up by our planning
committee.  We would particularly welcome submissions from those in the
HE/FE/Corporate/Government or NGO library community as well as those
involved in other initiatives of interest to the UKSG community
(www.uksg.org/about <http://www.uksg.org/about> ).  Suggestions may be
for plenary sessions or for the smaller break out sessions.

All speakers receive travel expenses and accommodation in addition to
the free delegate place.

You can review previous annual conference presentations at:

further information or assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Please send your suggestions/proposals (not the final presentation at
this stage) to: marketing@uksg.org or bev.acreman@tandf.co.uk by the end
of June 2008.
