Lifelong
Information Literacy (LILi) Group
welcomes everyone interested in topics of lifelong information literacy to submit proposals for engaging and interactive presentations related to this year’s virtual conference
theme, Teaching and Learning: Introducing New Topics, Pivoting Online, and Starting from Scratch. We are exploring approaches for creating, adapting, and reimagining instruction and services in an ever-changing landscape. After the uncertainty
of the last two years, those working in libraries and K-12 schools have had to pivot to new modes of instruction multiple times, sometimes at the last minute. We have also been asked to take on new roles and to teach ourselves and our students about new disciplines,
tools, and more. How can we continue to offer timely, crucial services in uncertain situations? And how can we balance library services with the understanding that our patrons and staff are facing unprecedented challenges, stressors, and more?
LILi (Lifelong Information Literacy) is a group of library workers, encompassing academic, public, school, and special libraries. Our organization
seeks to investigate information literacy definitions, standards and instruction, in order to craft effective models of lifelong, sequential information literacy instruction. Universal access and inclusivity is important to the organization. For accommodations
please contact us as soon as possible.

Introducing New Topics (to your classrooms, library, campus/organization)
Pivoting
Starting from Scratch
We will be accepting proposals for lightning talks, presentations, and virtual poster sessions. Definitions of presentation formats are as
follows:
Presentations (15 min presentation plus Q&A): Dynamic
presentations that share experiments, works in progress, or sustained reflections and outcomes of more complete projects while engaging a range of participants and fostering connections and dialogue.
Lightning Talks (5 to 7-min lightning talk plus Q&A):
Highly-focused presentations that succinctly introduce a topic, method, tool, project, or work-in-progress to catalyze ideas and foster follow-up discussions.
Posters
(2 min presentation plus Q&A): Poster proposals present work on any relevant topic or offer project tools, and software demonstrations in any stage of development. Selected posters will be emailed to registered attendees one week before the conference.
The hope is to allow for more discussion and questions during the interactive poster session.
All proposals must have a title, with an abstract of up to 300 words, including 3 main takeaways for the audience. Creative and engaging proposals
that include interactive elements will be given priority. Please indicate your preferred format when filling out the proposal submission
form.
All proposals will be blind-reviewed by a group of LILi Advisory Board members.
We endeavor to support everyone who is interested in presenting, but ask that proposals not advertise or promote paid services or consultancy.
LILi conferences are to be free, shared learning spaces for all. We especially encourage students and early-career folks to be part of our conference - do not hesitate to submit. We invite proposals from diverse voices, giving priority to people from marginalized
communities during the submission process. We want anyone who is interested in this conference theme and the LILi mission to be part of our LILi community.
All presenters, presentations, and related materials are asked to ensure:
