Call for Proceedings Recorders
NASIG is seeking Conference Recorders for sessions at this
year's Annual
Conference in Asheville. Recorders are asked to attend
specific
sessions, take notes and then synthesize the notes into a
readable,
comprehensive report of the session for the Conference
Proceedings. For
Vision Sessions, Recorders may be asked to listen to
recordings of a
presentation and work with the speaker to create a report
for
publication in the Proceedings. Reporters will work under
the general
direction of the Proceedings Editors. If you are a NASIG
member with the
ability to write clear, organized prose, and who is able to
submit a
report by Friday, July 17, 2009, please consider this
opportunity to
make a valuable contribution to the organization.
To apply, submit a letter of application by e-mail to:
Lori J. Terrill
E-mail : lori@uwyo.edu <mailto:lori@uwyo.edu>
Phone: (307) 766-2490
Include in your application your complete contact
information (including
your snail mail address, e-mail, and phone number!),
sessions you plan
to attend, and a writing sample. Please include the writing
sample as an
attachment or as a link. The writing sample can be on any
topic; it does
not have to be related to librarianship. The purpose of the
writing
sample is to illustrate your writing ability. Suggested
samples include:
reports on a process, event, or meeting; book reviews;
excerpts from
essays or academic papers. Do not include minutes of
meetings.
Deadline for Applications: Friday, April 17, 2009
