October 6 - 10, 2010 Buffalo, New York Hosted by the University at Buffalo Call for Presentation Proposals About the Conference The CCUMC Annual Conference is the premier annual event for the sharing of knowledge and wisdom about media and academic technology in higher education institutions throughout North America. CCUMC's 2010 conference promises to be the best yet, with a fun, exciting, and informative mix of 24 scheduled concurrent sessions, 6 interest groups, and daily keynotes and general sessions. This year's conference will include a special campus tour of University at Buffalo facilities highlighting media, academic technology, and learning spaces, as well as an outing to Niagara Falls for a tour and dinner. More information about the conference is at: http://ccumc.buffalo.edu Invitation to present CCUMC invites members and other interested parties to submit proposals for presentations to be considered for inclusion into the conference program. Each concurrent session is allotted a one hour time slot for their program, which generally includes 45 minutes for a formal presentation and additional time for Q&A or discussion. Presentations may be made by individuals, or by panels of presenters from one or more institution.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
