This year’s conference will explore the evolving landscape of information science and technology tools and systems and examine how information professionals and institutions navigate these changes. Practitioners, students, researchers in all library and information science/technology fields are encouraged to submit a proposal.

We are accepting proposals for presentations, panels, workshops and lightning talks/posters related to our conference theme. We welcome proposals from students, faculty, practitioners, and any other role in the information sciences, libraries, archives, and other related sectors. Priority will be given to proposals from presenters in the Northeast region (CT, DE, ME, MD, MA, NH, NJ, NY, PA, RI, VT, DC).

Potential ideas include (but are not limited to):

• Large-scale library systems migrations (proprietary/open source, project management, etc.)

• Alternative data (web scraping, site traffic data, etc.)

• Collaborative tools or technology projects (showcase successful collaborations in the information science and technology realm)

• Emerging technology (social apps, AI-enabled apps, and other cutting-edge innovations)

• The role of automation in information science and technology

• Learning management systems (impact on student organization of information, privacy concerns, accessibility issues)

• Web and social media archiving

Proposed topics can be in any format: panel, presentation, 7-10 minute lightning talk/poster, hands-on workshop, etc. However, we are especially interested in lightning talk submissions!
