Dear Colleague,

VALA2014 – Call for Abstracts OPEN

Online submission of abstracts for VALA2014 has been extended to 10 May
2013. 

This year’s theme “streaming with possibilities” opens the door for
papers on a wide range of topics including Data, Bigger Data, Discovery,
Publishing, Collaboration, Social, Stewardship, Maker/Hacker, Cloud,
Future Proofing and Patron.  This is your opportunity to present your
latest research or experience to hundreds of delegates at VALA2014. 

Full details are available at www.vala.org.au/conf2014 and the Call for
Abstracts will now remain open until 10 May 2013. 

VALA2014 Conference papers for publication are due to be submitted
before the end of September when the peer-review process will begin,
during which time you will have the opportunity to update the paper as
events and technologies unfold. At the Conference you are asked to talk
to your paper.

VALA2014 will take place at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition
Centre from Tuesday 4 February to Thursday 6 February 2014, with Boot
Camps and L-Plate Series on Monday 3 February. (Monday and Friday are
also available for associated events, meetings or workshops - contact
the VALA Conference Office at vala at wsm.com.au if you are interested in
holding a workshop or associated event.)

The Main Announcement and Registration Portal will be available online
from September 2013 at www.vala.org.au/conf2014.  Remember, you and your
organisation will be able to get best value for money by being full
members of VALA and paying for your registrations by 30 November 2013,
so make your budget plans for the rest of this year accordingly!

If you know of other people who are doing work that may be of interest,
please direct them to the Call for Abstracts too. And there's a bonus:
there is one discounted registration available per paper accepted for
presentation at the Conference.

If you know a vendor you would like to see at the trade exhibition, the
Sponsorship and Exhibition Brochure is also available online - follow
the links from the VALA2014 website. 

All VALA2014 information is updated regularly on our website so bookmark
this page www.vala.org.au/conf2014 to keep in touch with the premier
Australian forum for library and information professionals.

We appreciate you passing this notice on to your colleagues.
