This will be the fifth year that we have hosted a webinar with this topic. We are hosting this webinar in Fall 2025 and Spring 2026. Accepted presenters will present at either the Fall or the Spring webinar, but not both.</span></div><br><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; text-decoration-color: currentcolor; text-decoration-line: none; text-decoration-style: solid; vertical-align: baseline;">We are looking for a broad range of presenters (catalogers, archivists, paraprofessionals, students, interns, etc.). If you have cataloged something that you think is cool, then consider presenting it. These objects may be a book, map, globe, kitchen implement, garden tool, educational kit, music score, or anything else. Presenters will discuss why an object or a collection of objects was a challenge to catalog, how they cataloged it, resources (such as content standards) that they used to catalog it, and information that they learned while cataloging it.</span></p><br><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; text-decoration-color: currentcolor; text-decoration-line: none; text-decoration-style: solid; vertical-align: baseline;">Presentations should be 7-10 minutes. The full session will be approximately one hour and will include a period for questions and discussion. The Fall webinar will occur in late October or early-to-mid November on a week day. The Spring webinar will occur in April or May on a week day. It will take place in mid-afternoon if you live in the Eastern time zone or late morning if you live in the Pacific time zone or early to mid morning if you live in the Hawaii-Aleutian time zone. </span></p><br><div dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; text-decoration-color: currentcolor; text-decoration-line: none; text-decoration-style: solid; vertical-align: baseline;">If you are interested in presenting, fill out </span><a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScJMOpvMRB-Vi1CzbuTOGpljVj5wSEoKRZLBIMtzSgNHvHFtQ/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=112044639320525561077" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; text-decoration-line: none; text-decoration-style: solid;" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(17, 85, 204); background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; text-decoration-color: currentcolor; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-style: solid; vertical-align: baseline;">this form</span></a><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; text-decoration-color: currentcolor; text-decoration-line: none; text-decoration-style: solid; vertical-align: baseline;"> by Friday, September 12th, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. Hawaii-Aleutian time.
