Proposal Deadline: Proposals will be evaluated as they are received, and
priority may be given to those who submit early. The Proposal Deadline
is October 30, 2009.

Proposal Evaluation: The committee will evaluate each proposal on the
basis of subject matter (including, but not limited to, the issues
listed in the topic descriptions), clarity, and timeliness. We will also
hold a period of open voting to allow potential attendees to help shape
the program. Proposals should be for original work that has not been
published. We may request that some presenters combine sessions with
complementary subject matter.

Compensation: Presenters receive 50% off the cost of registration.
Presenters asked to participate in an ER&L Online Conference will
receive free conference registration.

More info: ER&L provides a forum for information professionals to
explore ideas, trends, and technologies related to electronic resources
and digital services. The idea of this event is to bring together
stakeholders inside and outside of the library to look at the impact the
digital environment has on library collections, access to resources, and
our organizations. We invite various perspectives and approaches to
managing, promoting and accessing electronic resources.
We hope to foster collaborative, cross-departmental, cross-community
approaches to the issues e-resources have brought to our environment.
