Call for Proposals – Primo Reference & Instruction Meeting 2017

Ellensburg, WA – Brooks Library, Central Washington University

August 14, 2017

What is PRIM?

PRIM stands for the Primo Reference & Instruction Meeting.  It is a way for
reference and instruction librarians across the Alliance to meet to discuss
how the Primo/Alma Shared ILS affects our work. It is also an opportunity
for non-Alliance librarians to meet colleagues to learn more about Primo
and share their knowledge of Reference & Instruction.  We are expanding
this year's conference to include all aspects of reference and instruction
as well as conversations about Primo. Registration is limited.  There is no
cost for registration but we ask for $10.00 to help cover the cost of lunch.

Theme: Focus – Engagement - Literacy

We seek people who want to share their enthusiasm in working with students
through poster sessions, presentation, breakout sessions, panel
discussions, and/or interactive workshops which explore the contexts of
teaching, communicating, learning, collaborating, and conversing with
students both in class settings and in our work environments.  Our goal is
to increase awareness and encourage diversity of understanding across all
types of libraries, schools, and other library organizations through this
call for proposals.  Please note successful proposals have clear, engaging
takeaways and frequently are interactive.  Submissions for review due:
April 26, 2017.  For more information, please see:
