Call for Papers and Posters
Call for Contributed Papers
The International Programme Committee is inviting submissions for the
contributed paper sessions. Papers may describe practitioner-based research,
the implementation of research in practice, evaluation as a way of informing
future activities or programmes or the application of evidence based practice
models and tools to librarianship and should relate to the overall theme of the
conference.
Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:
International perspectives on evidence based librarianship
The relationship between evidence based librarianship and evidence based
practice
Relevant and answerable questions facing librarian practitioners and
researchers
The quality and quantity of practice-based research in librarianship
Techniques for synthesising and summarising the evidence
Disseminating and utilising research into practice
Project evaluation, Program evaluation or the Measurement of educational
outcomes in library practice
Accepted contributed papers will each be allotted approximately 20 minutes for
presentation during the course of the conference and will be presented as part
of either a research stream or a practice stream.
To be considered, please complete the Abstract Submission Form available from
http://www.ualberta.ca/~pryan/program.html including a short, structured
abstract of 250 words or less, by 12 midnight GMT on Friday December 13, 2002.
