I don’t know how many Colorado academic librarians read this blog, but I wanted to take a moment to point out Colorado Academic Library Summit 2007, a conference planned for May 31 and June 1, 2007 at the Sheraton Denver West. The theme is Changing Cultures: Collaborations, Social Networking and New Technologies. Here is what they are looking for:
The planning committee is seeking presentations that highlight the changing culture and values of library staff; the implementation and potential of social computing tools and emerging technologies; and reaching out to the new generation of patrons.
They are also looking for “digital poster sessions” (don’t quite know what that means) and discussion leaders for “table topics.” I sent in my proposals today; we’ll see what happens. Proposals are due by February 5 (that’s next Monday, so get crackin’).
