Subject: LAPT Call for reporters
**Please reply to Carol Hawks (hawks.1@osu.edu), not to SERIALST. --ed.
________
_LAPT_ has always made an effort to cover many of the programs and
discussion groups at the ALA conferences related to our scope.
Some of these brief reports are written by members of the editorial
board. However, a number of meetings for which I would like to
provide a report are still available and I am soliciting your help
and interest in covering any of these programs and discussion
groups.
Reports are published much like the Review Section in _LAPT_. The
reports are published in a single combined article with each report
having a separate byline. Each author receives reprints and proofs
of their section for review. Reports are generally 2-6 double-
spaced pages depending on the content of the meeting covered. In
some cases, lengthy programs might warrant longer reports.
If you are interested in covering any of the programs and
discussion groups which follow, please respond via e-mail
(hawks.1@osu.edu) as soon as possible. Your finished report would
be due to me on 7-15-95. Two printed copies are needed plus a copy
on disk in ASCII format or preferably WordPerfect 5.1. Sample
reports appear in recent issues of the journal.
Thanks in advance for your help.
