Apologies for cross-postings --
The 2010 SAA (Society of American Archivists) Research Forum will take
place on August 10, 2010 from 9am - 5pm during the SAA Annual Meeting in
Washington DC. http://www.archivists.org/
SAA launched the Research Forum in 2007 to provide an opportunity to
discuss and share information about research initiatives with relevance
for archives and records management. Researchers, practitioners,
educators, students, and the curious across all sectors of archives and
records management are welcome to participate.
The deadline for abstracts (250 words or less) is May 3, 2010.
Proposals may indicate a preference for a short-platform presentation
(10 minutes - e.g., for individual researchers and preliminary results),
a longer platform presentation (30 minutes - e.g., for team research
projects, complex or final results), a poster session. Submitters will
be notified of acceptance by the end of June (prior to the earlybird SAA
Annual Meeting registration deadline on July 6). Registration for the
Research Forum is included in the annual meeting registration fee or is
$50 to attend only the Research Forum ($25 for students).
On August 9, SAA will also offer a one-day Research Skills workshop
providing tips and advice on conducting research.

Hope to see you at the 2010 SAA Research Forum!
