Call for Proposals: 2025 Joint ACRL-NEC - NELIG Annual Conference

June 12-13, 2025

Thursday June 12, 2025: Online
Friday June 13, 2025: College of the Holy Cross, Worcester, MA

ACRL-NEC and NELIG sessions will take place on both conference days.

This year’s conference theme is:

Unknown(s): Making Our Own Luck

We want to acknowledge that the past few years have often left us navigating uncharted waters. While the unknowns can sometimes feel overwhelming, they also present us with opportunities to think differently, adapt, and create something new. We invite you to submit session proposals that reflect the resilience, creativity, and forward-thinking that have allowed libraries to thrive even in the face of uncertainty. We hope to highlight all aspects of library work, such as archives, preservation & conservation, collection development, instruction, technical services, engagement, facilities, assessment, communications, and administration.

Please feel free to be creative in your interpretation of the conference theme. There are many possible directions to go - here are just a few prompts to get you thinking:

Lucky Breaks and Strategic Planning
Agility in Action
Future-Proofing Library Services
Rapid Change as a Constant
From Good Fortune to Great Ideas
Building Resilience in Library Staffing

Proposal deadline: Monday, March 3, 2025, 11:59pm EST
