Please forgive cross-posting: *2017 Association of Architecture School Librarians (AASL) Conference* *Call for Proposals* *Detroit: a new model* Deadline for submissions: *Friday, September 16, 5 pm EST* The AASL Programming Committee is now accepting proposals for the 2017 AASL Annual Conference, which will be held in Detroit, Michigan, March 23-25, 2017. Conference programming will include lightning talks, conference papers, and tours. Lightning talks are 6 minutes with a maximum of 12 slides; papers are15-20 minutes in length. We are issuing a call for both lightning talks and conference papers. Detroit will be both case study and analogy. As a case study, we’ll explore representations of the city and its built environment across various media (you will hear more on that as the conference draws near). The analogy that Detroit provides for architectural librarianship is that tension between old and new. When faced with the inevitability of change, how do we acknowledge the past, while welcoming the present? Just as Detroiters (natives and new blood) are figuring out not only how to coexist but to work together to build a new model of a city; how do our old and new skills, services, and spaces build upon each other to provide a new model for moving forward in architectural librarianship? Here are some suggestions for presentation topics and themes. See what inspires you. Fill out a proposal form so that we can hear about your work. *Our local environment* Local Case Studies – Engaging with our communities/cities – Finding local resources (ephemera, etc) – Feet on the Ground Reference (knowing your locale and your community and helping your students learn about your locale) *Partnering* Collaboration with Faculty – Collaboration with other librarians – Grants – Interdisciplinary Opportunities *Outreach* Publicity and Promotion – Community Involvement – Liaison Relationships – Embedded Librarians *Spaces* Renovation – Maker Spaces – Library as Learning Lab – Closing Branches & Sharing Resources *Architecture School Collections* Documenting Student Work – Institutional Repositories – Born-Digital Architectural Records – Special Collections & Archives *Digital Scholarship* Digital Humanities – Student Work – Exhibits & Projects – Data Projects – Digital Repositories, Asset Management, & Metadata *Instruction* Information Literacies – Research Assistance – Curriculum Development & Mapping – Supporting Traveling Studios *Assessment* Tenure & Promotion – Alt-metrics – Measuring Impact Proposals for either presentation format should not exceed *250 words*.
