Online Proposal Submission Form can be found here:

*Contributed Paper Session Format Details*
The Contributed Papers Committee invites research and position papers 
that challenge current assumptions and provoke conference participants 
to think creatively about issues facing academic and research 
librarians. Papers may report the results of completed research, 
describe research in progress, or present a position on a compelling 
problem or issue in one or more of the conference tracks. Research 
papers should highlight the problem, results, and conclusions while very 
briefly touching on method.

In an effort to maximize interactivity and to provide more opportunities 
for participation, papers will be grouped in threes, and each paper must 
be delivered in a maximum of twelve minutes, with an additional seven 
minutes for questions (20 minutes total) within a 60--minute time slot 
for all three papers.  Completed papers should be about 2,500 words and 
should be scholarly, well organized, clearly written, and rigorously 
argued.  Completed papers must be provided no later than December 19, 2010.

produced a focus on information that is unaware of its history." --
