[Answerland-summit] TEST: Call for proposals - Oregon Reference Summit Virtual Conference 2023

[Lee Van Duzer]

  *   I’m not sure what this line is supposed to say: “• Providing  reference services and assistable options are available  to patrons with disabilities and special needs in your library.” (also there are a couple double-spaces in it)
  *   I think there are a lot of empty dots to scroll through in the email.

I didn’t see any other issues; I think everything looks good on the website and form.


As an aside, every time I see you refer to us as the ORS team I think “Oregon Revised Statutes team?” 😉

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Answerland-summit] TEST: Call for proposals - Oregon Reference Summit Virtual Conference 2023


Hi ORS Team, this is what I will send out. Is anyone available to do a quick check that there are no glaring errors and the submission form works?

The Oregon Reference Summit will host a virtual conference on Friday, May 19, 2023. Additionally, we will continue to offer regular individual session opportunities throughout the year. Our goal is to share reference-focused content appropriate for all skill levels, library types, and experiences.

The planning committee invites you to submit proposals for programs relating to reference service. We welcome any subjects. Nontraditional librarians, library support staff, and first time presenters are encouraged to submit.


Possible topics might include:

  *
  *
  *   Mental and Emotional health in library services including self-care for Library workers
  *
  *
  *
  *   The intersection of reference services and social justice
  *
  *
  *
  *   Communication: Best practices in impactful communication in reference services.
  *
  *
  *
  *   Anti-Racist reference practices
  *

  *   Providing  reference services and assistable options are available  to patrons with disabilities
  *   and special needs in your library.

  *
  *
  *
  *   Finding and utilizing culturally-appropriate resources
  *
  *
  *
  *   Engaging underrepresented staff in reference services
  *
  *
  *
  *   Success stories
  *
  *
  *
  *   Not-so-successful stories (What did  you learn when things didn't work out as planned?)
  *
  *
  *
  *   Specialized research topics (e.g. medicine, law, science)
  *


Programs should be designed to run for either 60 minutes or 20-30 minutes including Q&A. The Summit Planning Team will provide the presentation platform (Zoom), manage advertising and registration, and assist and support presenters. If you are not available for the May conference but have a presentation idea, please still submit it and we’ll consider it for one of our future one-off presentations.
