The Special Libraries Association is looking for speakers and posters for the 115th Annual Conference and Expo! This year's theme is "Collaboration for Innovation" and our overarching topics for this year are Competitive Intelligence, Data Science & Research, Knowledge &  Records Management: The Modern Information Professional, Leadership & Management Skills, and New & Innovative Technologies.

All presentations are required to be delivered in-person. Please note that if your proposal is accepted and you agree to present, you must register for the conference. If you would like to attend the full conference, you will receive a speaker discount of 25% for SLA members and 20% for non-members. We will also offer a complimentary "Talk & Walk" registration for speakers who do not wish to attend the full conference. However, you will be responsible for your travel and lodging expenses.

All speaker submissions must be received by March 22nd, 2024. We are extending the poster submissions until April 26th, 2024. Once you apply, your proposal will go through a review process, and if your proposal is accepted, you and your co-presenters will be invited to present and will be given access to your own private portals.
