[ANPPOM-Lista] Association of Moving Image Archivists: AMIA 2020 | Call for Proposals

[Carlos Palombini]

The AMIA Conference Committee
Invites Proposal Submissions for Papers, Sessions, and Workshops
For the 2020 Annual Conference in El Paso, TX
November 11-14, 2020

The goal of the AMIA Conference is to present a broad-based program that
speaks to a wide range of attendees with a balance of theory and practice,
inviting new ideas and concepts that stimulate additional interest,
involvement, and educational benefit. In keeping with ongoing membership
discussions about diversity and inclusion, we urge proposers to use AMIA
Conference sessions as an opportunity to include new voices and offer
diverse viewpoints.

In addition to general programming, the Conference will feature two program
streams this year:  Content as Data: Archival Approaches to Computational
Analysis<https://wp.me/p6UVNQ-1qB> and Borders and Borderlands:
Conversations and Documentation.<
http://www.amiaconference.net/borders-and-borderlands-conversations-and-documentation/>
The Committee welcomes proposals on these topics and all issues to do with
media archives with particular emphasis in the area of Latin American media
heritage and practices, innovative technical solutions, tools and
strategies for workflow and data management, sustainable preservation
practices & archival approaches to climate crisis, and development of an
equitable and inclusive profession.

We encourage you to read the Call for Proposals FAQ<
http://www.amiaconference.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Session-Proposal-FAQ-2020.pdf>.
The FAQ explains the review process and offers information and tips on what
the reviewers and the Conference Committee consider in the proposal
process.  If you have questions about putting together your proposal,
please contact our Proposal Help Desk (helpdesk em amiaconference.com<mailto:
helpdesk em amiaconference.com>). Committee members are available to answer
your questions and provide advice about the process.

Also, the Conference Committee has created a Google spreadsheet<
http://bit.ly/2RTa3sQ> to connect individuals seeking ideas and/or
collaborators for session and workshop proposals. The spreadsheet is
provided as a means of communication only: the Committee does not monitor
the document and it is not part of the official submission process.

If you have questions about putting together your proposal, please contact
our Proposal Help Desk<mailto:helpdesk em amiaconference.com>. The Committee
has also scheduled two online Office Hours to answer questions and provide
advice and assistance (March 3 and April 9).

The online proposal form and information about the form are here.
