(Apologies for Cross-Posting)

The 2009 Program Planning Committee (PPC) invites proposals 
and/or program ideas for pre-conference, vision, strategy, and 
tactics sessions. The Program Planners are specifically 
interested in hearing from publishers, vendors, librarians, and 
others in the field of serials and electronic resources about 
issues relating to scholarly communication, licensing, and 
publishing. Proposals based on both descriptive and experimental 
research findings are especially welcome. The Program Planning 
Committee will review all submitted proposals for their content, 
timeliness, and reserves the right to combine, blend, or refocus 
proposals to maximize their relevance and to avoid duplication.

This Call for Proposals will close on September 5, 2008. 
Presentations must be original and not previously presented at 
other conferences. The Programming Planning Committee hopes to 
notify applicants by the end of the calendar year, but no earlier 
than December 1, 2008, as to the status of proposals.

Inquiries may be sent to the PPC co-chairs, Erika Ripley and 
Morag Boyd at: prog-plan@nasig.org. For additional details and to 
suggest a proposal or idea, please go to
