ALISE 2010:  Creating a Culture of Collaboration

Call for Works in Progress Posters
Deadline for Extended Abstracts (maximum 250 words):  October 1, 2009
Notification of Acceptance:  No later than October 15, 2009

Attendees of the conference are invited to share current research through 
posters presented at the Works in Progress Showcase.  Participants receive 
feedback in an informal setting.  This is an excellent opportunity to 
identify collaborators and obtain feedback that may enrich research.  The 
poster may represent any aspect of the researcher's work:  proposal, 
theoretical framework, methodology, findings, etc.

The posters for the Works in Progress Showcase are neither refereed nor 
judged.  We do have limited space for the posters so we will accept based 
on the availability of space for display.

Eligibility:
All conference attendees are welcome to submit posters of their work in 
progress. Doctoral students may not submit the same research presented in 
the doctoral student research competition.

include the following:
•	Full Name of Presenter(s)
