    REMINDER: DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS FOR THE SAA RESEARCH FORUM DUE MAY 15, 2019

     

    SAA invites submission of abstracts (of 250 words or fewer) for either 10-minute platform presentations or poster presentations. Topics may address research on, or innovations in, any aspect of archives practice or records management in government, corporate, academic, scientific, or other setting. The Research Forum will be held on Friday, August 2nd this year.

     

    Presentations on research results that may have emerged since the 2019 Joint Annual Meeting Call for Proposals deadline are welcome, as are reports on research completed within the past three years that you think is relevant and valuable for discussion. Please indicate whether you intend a platform or poster presentation. See the full call here: https://www2.archivists.org/am2019/research-forum-2019

     

    Abstracts will be evaluated by a review committee co-chaired by Nance McGovern (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and Heather Soyka (Kent State University).

     

    Deadline for submission of abstracts: May 15, 2019. You will be notified of the review committee's decision by July 2nd (in advance of the Early-Bird registration deadline).

     

    Proposals can be submitted online here and must include: Presentation title, your name and affiliation, email address, whether your proposal is for a platform or poster presentation, and an abstract of no more than 250 words.
