Poster Sessions
SCLA 2009 Annual Conference
Poster sessions are an effective visual forum for exchanging
information, a means to communicate ideas, research, future trends and a
great way to highlight successful library programs and services!
Poster sessions may present any of the following:
* a description of an innovative library program or service
* an analysis of a practical problem-solving effort
* a report of a research study
Poster sessions consist of materials such as pictures, data, graphs,
diagrams and narrative text placed on display boards (usually 4' x 6';
dimensions and formats may vary). During the time allotted for poster
sessions, presenters informally discuss their projects with conference
attendees.
Fifteen (15) simultaneous poster sessions will be selected for
presentation at SCLA 2009. To apply, complete an application (below in
this email, or find online at
http://www.scla.org/uploads/AnnualConference2009/postersessionform2009.p

Submit application by email, mail or fax. Contact Kathy Sheppard,
