Subject: Call for Reporters -- Charleston Conference
Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 11:02:25 -0400
From: Carol Diedrichs <diedrichs.1@osu.edu>

_Library Collections, Acquisitions and Technical Services_ (formerly
_Library Acquisitions: Practice & Theory_ has always made an effort to
cover many of the programs and conferences related to our scope.  These
brief reports are written by members of the editorial board as well as
volunteer reporters.  This is the same approach we are taking to this
year's Charleston Conference.  Thus, 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 _LCATS_.  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.  I encourage reporters to cover the
content
and points made by the speakers so that these reports are useful to
readers
who could not attend the conference.  In some cases, lengthy programs
might
warrant longer reports.  By way of example, volume 23, no. 2 includes
the
reports from last year's Charleston Conference.

Please check the Charleston Conference web site for the list of Plenary
Sessions — http://www.cofc.edu/cdconference/programdesc.html.  If you
are
interested in covering any of these programs, please respond via e-mail
(diedrichs.1@osu.edu) as soon as possible.  Your finished report would
be
due to me on 12-15-99.  The report can be sent via e-mail in WordPerfect
or
Word format.   More extensive guidelines for the report are available at

Thanks in advance for your help.
