*About the ACRL/NY 2016 Annual Symposium:* This symposium will address how
economic,social, and political factors affect the choices we make as
individuals and as institutions within the field of academic and research
libraries and archives.

Possible subjects include questions of labor, class, budgets, funding
strategies, the power to name within classification schemes, the role of
power within scholarly discourse, leveraging power to foster change within
institutions, power dynamics within reference and instruction, and
sociopolitical hierarchies that libraries may replicate and/or challenge.

Applicants are invited to interpret the theme broadly and with originality,
so long as there is a clear and compelling rationale tying the proposal to
the theme

identifying information in your abstract.
