Submit a Proposal for the Upcoming Annual Meeting Here.

Proposals are due Friday, September 20, 2024 at 5PM PST / 8PM EST.

Proposals should include a title and brief abstract (ca. 100-250 words). Proposed presentations may fit into a traditional 30-minute, 45-minute, or 1-hour time slot; submitters may also propose an alternate format such as a panel discussion, a poster, a paper, a round of lightning talks, an interactive session, or something completely different. We invite topics that reflect the diversity of our profession and within our field(s), including, but not limited to, aspects of music librarianship related to collection development / management, instruction, cataloging and metadata, outreach, public services, archival and preservation work, music scholarship, social justice, and/or critical librarianship, or similar topics across interdisciplinary areas such as dance, theater, film, art, design, or other fields.

Please note that presenters and co-presenters are required to register for the MLACC meeting, even if only for a single day. We are hoping to record these presentations for those who may wish to attend virtually, but at this time are planning a solely in-person meeting.
