The next annual conference for ARLIS/NA will be held in Pittsburgh March

conference theme. The deadline for conference program proposals is MAY
31, 1999. We urge ARLIS/NA members to begin planning programs now. We
ask all moderators, coordinators, and chairs to contact constituents for
session themes and topics and to begin lining up volunteers to moderate
and/or speak at the proposed sessions. We offer the following topics to
spark ideas for lectures, panel discussions, AskARLIS sessions,
discussion groups, seminars and workshops.
