The Information Literacy Advisory Group of Oregon, also known as ILAGO, invites you to submit proposals for the *14th annual Oregon Information Literacy Summit*. The event will take place on Saturday, May 30. This year we will be hosted by Lane Community College in Eugene, Oregon.
We invite a diverse range of presentations on information literacy across library environments. Programs can be of various formats including, for example: interactive workshops, guided discussions, panels, round table discussions, or poster presentations. Presentations are generally 45 minutes each, including Q & A. Longer programs/workshops will be considered on a case-by-case basis; if submitting a longer proposal, please include that in the Comments field.
The IL Summit typically has 50+ attendees who are eager to hear new ideas and ways to approach information literacy. Examples of topics that may be of interest include, but are not limited to: Equity in Library Instruction; Care and Feeding of library instructional programs; Mentoring librarians who are new to teaching in college settings; Collaborations between librarians and other instructional faculty; Information literacy across the curriculum and in the disciplines; Expanding critical thinking and information literacies in the K-16 continuum; IL teaching demonstrations; building info literacy activities into assignments, the librarian as consultant.
Program proposals will be accepted until Friday, March 13. Please submit your proposals here. Note that presenters are required to register for the conference.
