New England Archivists (NEA) invites submissions of session proposals for our Spring 2019 Meeting, to be held *April 4–6, 2019, in Burlington, Vermont,* at the Hilton Burlington. The deadline for proposals is *September 28, 2018*. With the theme “Together We Can,” the Spring 2019 Meeting will explore how archivists work with both records and users, especially with diverse peoples and groups who use and share archival material. Sessions offering practical information and innovative ideas will inspire archivists in the work they do every day as well as advance the archives profession. The Spring 2019 Program Committee invites proposals on all topics but is especially interested in the following: ● Archivists who work with non-traditional user groups ● Interdisciplinary projects involving archivists or the use of archives ● Effects of changes in laws or policies related to archives ● Concepts of fact and truth in the archives ● Archival advocacy within different types of administrative structures ● Collaboration to complete digital and analog projects ● Vermont history and culture First-time presenters, current graduate students, and early-career professionals are encouraged to apply. POSSIBLE SESSION TYPES *Standard Presentation* Two or three speakers present on a common theme. May include a moderator to steer discussion and/or introduce speakers and theme. *Open Forum* Topical discussion with moderator leading discussion with everyone in attendance. May include additional moderator(s) to direct breakout conversations. *PechaKucha* Each presentation consists of 20 slides or images displayed for 20 seconds each, with comment, and lasts six minutes and 40 seconds. Highest number of presenters possible for one session is 12, fewer if leaving time for questions. *Lightning Talks* Like PechaKucha, but without a set format. May or may not include slides or images. Presentations may be from three to ten minutes long, with number of presenters depending on time allotted for each. *Debate* Moderator announces the topic, and two other people debate. *Alternative Format* Suggest an alternative format or create your own. Proposals must include a description of the format and how the format will benefit the presentation and the audience. *Note:* Standard A/V (a projector and screen) will be provided at each session. In order to facilitate collaboration, the Spring 2019 Program Committee has created a space for NEA members to develop session proposals together: *Collaboration Spreadsheet <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qiKtc7csdX9L6RIMxGNSxCsw37RVIQanpvwWezSoW1g/edit?usp=sharing>* Please use this space to connect with your colleagues about potential session topics and formats.
