Historical Perspectives Special Interest Group CFP
Conference Theme: Educational Entrepreneurship

Call for Paper or Panel Presentation — DEADLINE: July 8, 2013

In keeping with the 2014 ALISE Conference Theme, “Educational Entrepreneurship,” the Historical Perspectives SIG invites submissions for individual papers, or for a 3+ person panel program that highlights the history of educational entrepreneurship in LIS (interpreted broadly). This session offers an opportunity to reveal previously unknown historical instances of times when the field has experimented with educational practice or discussed and entertained various educational theories.

If you have something in mind that is not related to the conference theme, we invite you to propose different topics. This call is open to anyone working in the field of library and information science, regardless of occupational label.

In order to make the July 15th ALISE SIG deadline submission, submit 300 – 500 word abstracts in PDF, ODT, or DOCX format by July 8, 2011, to C. Sean Burns, sean.burns@uky.edu and to Ellen Pozzi, pozzie@wpunj.edu.

If proposing a panel, please also include a brief statement about each presenter.

Thank you,
C. Sean Burns & Ellen Pozzi
