Program Planning for 2011

Anne Myers
2011 AMPC Chair

There is no theme for the 2011 meeting. They usually sound the same, so we’re doing away with one for Philadelphia. Instead, our goal is to have the best programs that we can offer.

We will be scheduling program tracks through the 2011 conference, based on the AALL Core Competencies, which apply across different types of libraries. More information including program examples will be available soon. For now, here are the tracks:

  1. General or Core Programs
  2. Library Administration and Management
  3. Research, Reference, and Client Services
  4. Information Technology
  5. Collection Development and Cataloging
  6. Teaching

Members are particularly looking for programs that are advanced level. We’re asking proposers to tell us WHY a proposal is at a certain level to give the AMPC more information when we select programs.

The deadline for submitting proposals this year is September 15, 2010, giving everyone an extra month to put a proposal together. Please consider submitting a proposal - we depend on you!
