Be a Part of ALISE '21

The call for proposals for all ALISE 2021 Annual Conference tracks EXCEPT the ALISE/Jean Tague-Sutcliffe Doctoral Student Poster Competition closed March 15, 2021 (11:59 pm Pacific Time).


We would like to reiterate that our ALISE 2021 conference theme “Crafting a Resilient Future: Leadership, Education, & Inspiration” is intended to focus on recuperation and leadership in changing times and contexts. Resilience is fundamentally the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties, and we are aware that the past year has explored its own range of difficulties—some at the personal level, some at the organizational level--and affecting work-life, home-life, economic-life, political-life, mental and physical health-life, social and cultural life, and so many other facets of our own lived experiences as people and as LIS Educators and Professionals.

We welcome contrary viewpoints and encourage any response to the conference theme or the concepts of resilience via proposal submission to ensure we have meaningful dialog at the conference.


Call for Proposals

Notification Update:
Call for proposal notifications have been sent out for the following tracks: Juried Paper, Juried Panel, SIG, Submissions, ALISE Academy and Works in Progress Posters.  If you have not yet received your notification via email from Easychair, please contact Sara Aldrich, [email protected].

If your presentation was not accepted for this year’s conference, we want to clarify that ALISE saw a big increase in the number of submissions which made the selection process more competitive. Additionally, due to the transition to a virtual platform, ALISE now has a limited number of presentation slots available. We appreciate your interest in ALISE and encourage you to submit for next year’s in-person conference.
