A note from the ELUNA learns Program Chair:
Colleagues,
The deadline for submitting proposals for the ELUNA learns 2021 series has been extended to Friday, March 26, 2021 at 11:59PM CDT.
The ELUNA learns 2020 series was met with positive response, so we hope that our community will once again benefit from this online series of affordable educational programming. I will note that if you have never presented at an ELUNA event, whether the in-person meeting or last year’s online series, ELUNA learns is a great opportunity to get your feet wet!
The 2021 series will be held next throughout June-November with the goal of being held on Wednesdays from 1-4pm Eastern (exact dates TBD).
Now, for an ELUNA learns proposal call, some things stay the same, but many things change from our usual proposal calls. We will continue to utilize ProposalSpace, and proposal submissions will include spell-checked title and abstract, learning outcomes, and applicable Ex Libris products; however, please be advised of the following:
- There will not be a separate call for content typically presented at Developers Day+ – all developer-related content may be submitted using this submission form
- The session themes are not pre-defined – submitters will be asked to tag their proposals from a list of possible themes that will be used to design the ELUNA learns 2021 lineup
- Presentation length may be 20 or 40 minutes, depending on speaker preference as indicated in their proposal submission
- Each presentation will have a maximum of 2 speakers
- Tips for creating an ELUNA learns proposal can be found at https://el-una.org/eluna-learns/proposal-tips
The deadline for proposal submission is Friday, March 26, 2021. Speakers will receive notifications regarding proposal acceptance by mid-March. If you need additional incentive to submit a proposal, can we entice you with a speaker discount? All speakers will receive complimentary, individual access to the ELUNA learns 2021 series.
To submit a proposal for ELUNA learns 2021 series, please visit https://proposalspace.com/calls/d/1267
ProposalSpace will require you to set up an account using your email address. If you submitted a proposal in past years, you should already have a login. Please be advised that ProposalSpace allows you to start entering your presentation information, save it, and come back later to complete and submit the proposal.
If you have any questions regarding the proposal call, please do not hesitate to send me an email at [email protected]. I am happy to help!
