Greetings ARLIS Members,
Here's some information about the next MCN conference and the call
for proposals, FYI.
Best regards,
Maureen
Making Museums Work, Together: Innovation, Agility,and Collaboration
The 39th Annual MCN Conference: Nov 16-19, 2011 in Atlanta, GA!
This year's conference is a platform for "all hands" in the museum to
meet, collaborate and innovate. We're looking for presentations that
demonstrate agility of response and process, inter-disciplinary solutions
and cross-departmental collaboration in the museum. Include not just your
technology colleagues but also your curators and registrars, marketing and
development teams, your conservators, educators, administrators and
volunteers! Inspire us with your out-of-the-box thinking and innovative
uses of technology to cross boundaries and unite staff and audiences alike
in doing the work of the museum.
Proposals for papers, panels, workshops and more can be submitted until
April 15: http://mcn.edu/node/add/session-proposal
Feel free to sketch out your ideas on the website now to recruit
collaborators, get feedback from the community and tweak the proposal as
much as you like until the April 15 closing date.
Your other conference ideas are very welcome here:

And if you'd like to volunteer to help the Conference and Program
Committees, we'd love to have you on board! We're still looking for a
Gamer, Unconference liaison and support, and help with the MARKETING and
LOCAL CONFERENCE COMMITTEES: http://mcn.edu/mcn-2011-call-volunteers
Looking forward to seeing you in Atlanta,
Nancy
