FYI:

The 2016 Texas Conference on Digital
Libraries<https://conferences.tdl.org/tcdl/index.php/TCDL/TCDL2016> will be
held May 24-26 at the Commons Learning Center on the J.J. Pickle Research
Campus in Austin. The Texas Conference on Digital Libraries (TCDL) is the
premiere gathering of digital library and information professionals across
Texas and beyond. This is your opportunity to be part of the program.

TCDL addresses a wide range of topics including creation, promotion,
preservation, and management of digital projects and assets, as well as the
software and applications that drive the digital library world. How can you
make an impact on our growing digital culture? Simple: submit a session
proposal today. Sessions can take a number of forms, including:

*         Presentations: General presentations on practical work,
theoretical or speculative issues, or ongoing or completed research.

*         Panels: Panel sessions should address a single topic from multiple
perspectives and should engage the audience for a full 80-minute session.

*         24x7 Presentations (24 slides in 7 minutes): 7-minute
presentations comprising no more than 24 slides.

*         Posters: Posters will be featured at the conference reception and
through a "Minute Madness" session, during which presenters will give a
60-second summary of each poster.

*         Workshops, Tutorials & Demos, and Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions:
These events provide venues for in-depth instruction in important areas of
digital library practice (workshops), demonstrations of new or useful tools
and technologies (tutorials), and gatherings of interested attendees to
engage in discussion about a particular topic (birds-of-a-feather sessions).
Events in this category can range from 1 to 4 hours.
