[Sigia-l] Extending IA Summit Submission Deadline to Nov. 7th

[Jess McMullin]

Hello SIG-IA, Samantha Bailey, the 2009 IA Summit Chair, has asked me to
announce a deadline extension for proposals to the IA Summit. Our apologies
for the late notice, Samantha has had the complicated duty of acting as an
executor for an estate this week, and has not been able to be as available
as she hoped to be. The new deadline is 1 week from today, November 7th at
midnight Pacific Time (for the really technically minded, that is indeed
Nov. 8). Many thanks to all of you who have submitted so far. For those of
you who have felt unable to submit your great idea because of other time
pressure, we hope that this extension gives you the time needed to share
your ideas in a proposal. We look forward to your ideas and are excited
about all the great thinking and case studies that we've been seeing around
the community. Consider submitting to the General track, the Business
Strategy & Management track, the Research track, or preconference workshops
or consortia. First time presenters are welcome! Whether or not you're
submitting a proposal, we hope to see you in Memphis March 18-22, 2009!
Sincerely, Jess McMullin ----------------- IA Summit 2009 Business Strategy
& Management Track Co-Chair p.s. if you're interested in submitting to the
Business track, you're welcome to ping me and my co-chair Mags Hanley about
your ideas. you can reach me at jess DOT mcmullin AT nform DOT ca
