Ignite Call for Proposals & Information
Deadline to submit: April 29, 2016 

        
        
Have you ever flirted with the idea of presenting at a conference, but you’re 
not sure you can talk for 90 minutes on a topic? Are you a ground-floor library 
staffer who has been too busy running the dang library to come up with a 
full-fledged conference presentation idea? Why not Ignite @ CLA Sacramento 
2016? Open to new and experienced presenters alike!

 

Ignite sessions have a very unique format: you have 5 minutes to present on a 
topic and must use 20 slides. These micro-presentations are a great way to gain 
experience presenting at conference (for new folks!) or challenge yourself to 
talk about something really awesome in just 5 minutes (perfect for returning 
presenters who want something fun!)

Requirements for Presenters

·        You must be willing to work together with the CLA Ignite chairs, meet 
the deadlines that we set, and be open to receiving feedback about your 
presentation. We want to help you through every step of the presentation 
process so you will kick ass and take names once conference rolls around.  

·        Everyone, regardless of position or employment status, is welcome to 
submit a proposal. 

·        We’re going to need you to register for the Annual Conference, and it 
would be ideal if you had the support of your workplace or institution (and we 
can help with making the case!)

Q & A

1.       Do I need to be a CLA member to submit an Ignite proposal?

No, however preference is given to CLA members. 

 

2.       What kind of topics are you looking for?

We decided against specifying topics, as we don't want to place limits on your 
creativity, but here are some inspirational keywords: nutso, sassy, 
"different", anti-authority, anti-anti-authority, something you’re proud of, 
something you think should be changed or made better, inspiring, cautionary, 
bold, honest, authentic.
