         <title>LOEX 2009</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>CALL FOR PROPOSALS </p>

<p>37th Annual LOEX Conference <br />
April 30 – May 2, 2009 <br />
Albuquerque, New Mexico </p>

<p>The New Mexico LOEX Committee invites you to submit proposals to be considered for presentation at the 37th Annual LOEX Conference, April 30 – May 2, 2009 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The conference theme, Blazing Trails: On the Path to Information Literacy, explores the diverse paths that librarians take to develop successful information literacy programs. </p>

<p>Presenters are encouraged to develop unique and creative proposals related to the theme. Proposals should model best practices, provide useful information that participants can use at their libraries, showcase effective and innovative practices, support collaboration, and be as applicable as possible to a wide range of academic institution types. Successful proposals reflect elements of one of seven themes: </p>

<p>- Luminarias: The Art and Practice of Teaching casts light on teaching strategies, curriculum design, learning styles, and student engagement. </p>

<p>- Trail Guides: Leadership and Management covers topics such as managing a significant project or team, leading an initiative such as integrating information literacy into institutions of higher education, or establishing and fostering a professional development program. </p>

<p>- Off the Beaten Path: Creativity and Exploration includes comprehensive planning or implementation of innovations or emerging trends in all aspects of information literacy and instruction. </p>

<p>- Shortcuts: Lesson Plans To Go has the presenter share a proven lesson or unit plan, including processes and materials. Session participants should be able to go back to their respective institutions and readily implement the lesson plan. </p>

<p>- From Covered Wagon to the Railroad: Technology in Education asks what are useful roles of instructional technology in the 21st century? This track focuses on building, utilizing, or sustaining the effective use of technology in education. </p>

<p>- Round-up: Collaborative Efforts and Spaces examines how collaborations between people and programs can enhance information literacy and what types of spaces are best for collaboration and instruction.</p>

<p>- Are we there yet? Assessment and Accountability focuses on evaluating teaching or instructional tools, peer evaluation, or assessing user needs, student learning, or information literacy initiatives. </p>

<p>SESSION FORMATS <br />
Two types of proposals will be accepted. </p>

<p>Presentation: A 60-minute session that includes time for a 45-minute presentation and 10-15 minutes of question and answer. Most feature a successful program, practice or key issue related to instruction or information literacy. Presentations are intended for an audience typically of 50-70 people. Presenters should include in the proposal description the topic and an outline of the presentation. </p>

<p>Interactive Workshop: A 60-minute session where the presenter facilitates a learning environment in which attendees develop or explore teaching and/or research techniques. Presenters are expected to facilitate a well-planned and interactive session. Workshops are intended for an audience typically of 30-60 people. Proposals should include a description of the topic and details on how the presenter will make this session a “hands-on” experience for attendees. </p>

<p>In addition, there will be Poster sessions. Students currently enrolled in a Master's program in library and information sciences along with librarians in resident or intern programs will be invited to propose poster sessions. Details about proposing poster sessions will be posted in a separate call for proposal. </p>

<p>SUBMISSION INFORMATION <br />
Proposals must be received by November 21, 2008. Proposals must be submitted through the online submission form. The primary contact on the proposal will be notified if the proposal has been accepted for presentation by Friday, January 16, 2009. </p>

<p>More information can be found at: <a href="http://www.loexconference.org/callforproposals.html ">http://www.loexconference.org/callforproposals.html </a></p>

         <title>CANADIAN WOMEN&apos;S STUDIES ASSOCIATION</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>CALL FOR PAPERS/DEMANDE DE COMMUNICATIONS<br />
CANADIAN WOMEN'S STUDIES ASSOCIATION/L'ASSOCIATION CANADIENNE DES<br />
ETUDES SUR LES FEMMES (CWSA/ACEF)</p>

<p><br />
DATE: May 24-26, 2009<br />
LOCATION: Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario<br />
CONGRESS THEME: Capital Connections: nation, terroir, territoire</p>

<p><br />
The CWSA/ACEF is now seeking proposals, in either French or English, for<br />
its annual conference, held in conjunction with the Congress of the CFHSS/FCSH.<br />
Submissions for papers and panels can be made by individuals or groups, and as joint<br />
sessions with other associations. The conference will be structured around two embedded<br />
themes in addition to an open call:</p>

<p><br />
Theme 1: Roots, Territories, and Territorial Struggles in Women's Studies<br />
This theme honours a tradition of self-reflexivity within Women's Studies and encourages<br />
presenters to reflect upon the nature of the discipline, its past, and its continuing<br />
challenges.</p>

<p>a) What are the territories that Women's Studies has claimed and<br />
occupied within academia? What struggles have been waged/continue/are evolving in order<br />
to create and secure these spaces? What is the role of Capital in these struggles, in<br />
the neo-liberal university? What have been the implications within the academy of<br />
Women Studies commitment to interdisciplinarity/transdisciplinarity with respect to<br />
capital, terroir (ground,roots), and territory? What are the territorial implications of naming<br />
ourselves feminist/women's/gender studies?</p>

<p><br />
b) Under this theme, presenters are also encouraged to consider<br />
contested spaces within the discipline:</p>

<p>Diversity has been a central theme in feminist theoretical work for at<br />
least two decades, but how has this translated into the classroom? How are<br />
territories and boundaries of exclusion reproduced (or diminished) within this space?</p>

<p>Deconstruct/otherwise explore the binary between academic and activist<br />
feminisms. Issues such as those raised by bell hooks in Theory as Liberatory<br />
Practice could be considered: e.g., the appropriation of collective and/or non-academic<br />
thought by academics; intellectual class hierarchies; disconnections between lived<br />
realities and academic theory classes.</p>

<p>How is transnational feminism--with the new concepts space, nation,<br />
territory it presumes--being translated in WS classrooms? Do the uncritical ways<br />
transnational feminism is mobilized in WS merely replicate the imperialism it was<br />
ostensibly meant to critique?</p>

<p>In Canada the concept of nation is crucial and has important<br />
implications for the nature of Canadian Women's Studies. For example, Indigenous feminisms<br />
often discuss nation, nation-building, and (dis)connections between First Nations and<br />
non-Native women's issues. What are the potential connections and breaking points<br />
between WS and Native Studies?</p>

<p>How are national issues of language/nation mirrored within Canadian<br />
Women's Studies? How can CWSA/ACEF better fulfill its bilingual mandate, or<br />
should it try? Are there better structures to encourage and improve dialogue?<br />
& What connections/struggles/common ground/divisions can be productively<br />
explored between Women's Studies and other contested and inherently<br />
self-reflexive disciplines such as cultural studies, transgender and queer studies, race and<br />
ethnicity studies,disability studies?</p>

<p>We encourage presenters to think about this topic broadly and welcome submissions that<br />
address these debates at the institutional, administrative, intellectual, and pedagogical<br />
levels.</p>

<p><br />
Theme 2: Capital, nation, terroir, territoire: through the lens of gender</p>

<p>This conference theme inviteterritoriality from the perspective of women and/or through a gendered lens. Again, this theme may be applied broadly to include many areas of scholarship:</p>

<p>Empire: The relationship of gender to new forms of empire; historical<br />
perspectives on the role of women in empire-building</p>

<p>Women, gender and discourses and practices of nationalism</p>

<p>War: Situating women and gender in nations currently at war (including<br />
the US and Canada); feminist pacifisms</p>

<p>Relations among "race," racialization, and nations and nationalism</p>

<p>Gender in/and the relationship between nation and global flows of capital<br />
 <br />
Indigenous feminisms and the practices of nation they articulate</p>

<p>Francophone and Anglophone feminisms in Canada: How do French language<br />
and the English language feminisms conceptualize/practice feminist issues and<br />
struggles differently?</p>

<p>What are the spaces that women have created within government and as<br />
independent activist organizations, and how are these being sustained or eroded?</p>

<p>Theme 3: Open Call. Papers which do not address the above themes<br />
specifically.</p>

<p>**Please indicate clearly which theme you are submitting to on the proposal form.**</p>

<p><br />
We encourage presentations in a variety of formats, including papers,<br />
panels, workshops, roundtables, poster sessions, film and video screenings, performance art<br />
pieces, exhibits, and cultural events. If you are proposing a non-traditional<br />
presentation, please include a brief write up on any necessary audiovisual, technical, logistical, or room size and location considerations.</p>

<p>HOW TO SUBMIT:</p>

<p><br />
The proposal form (as a Word document), can be found on the CWSA/ACEF<br />
website: <a href="http://www.yorku.ca/cwsaacef">www.yorku.ca/cwsaacef</a>.</p>

<p><br />
All submissions must include the proposal form in addition to a maximum<br />
250-word abstract for individual papers and panels. In addition to the 250 word<br />
abstract summarizing the panel theme, pre-arranged panel submissions must also<br />
include short (50-100 word) abstracts of the individual papers clearly indicating the<br />
contributions of each member. All proposals will be anonymously reviewed.</p>

         <title>Hockey Mom or Sarah Barracuda? Addressing the Media Coverage of Sarah Palin</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>FLOWTV: CALL FOR PAPERS</p>

<p>Hockey Mom or Sarah Barracuda? Addressing the Media Coverage of Sarah Palin</p>

<p>In light of the overwhelming surge of discourse following John <br />
McCain's selection of Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin as his <br />
vice-presidential running mate, the editors of FlowTV invite <br />
submissions dealing with the media treatment, reaction, and handling <br />
of Gov. Palin as a politician, a woman, a "Hockey Mom," a wife, an <br />
Alaskan, and a Conservative. We hope the following quotes serve as a <br />
jumping off point - what we view as some of the most poignant <br />
examples of the recent media treatment - but we encourage submissions <br />
to look to viral video, spoofs, celebrations, editorials, Facebook <br />
status updates, blog entries, and myriad other sources of coverage.<br />
Submissions should be between 1000-1500 words. Because of the <br />
topicality of the particular subject, we welcome submissions as soon <br />
as possible, and no later thanSeptember 30th. While we seek neither <br />
diary entries nor diatribes, submissions need not be overly formal or <br />
academic, and we encourage the incorporation of images and video. <br />
Additionally, we encourage alternative perspectives from students, <br />
non-Americans, bloggers, etc.</p>

<p>Please send submissions and inquiries to Anne Petersen <br />
annehelenpetersen@gmail.com,Co-Coordinating Editor</p>
