Proposals for paper presentations, workshops, or colloquia are invited for both the Twelfth and Thirteenth International Conferences on Books, Publishing, and Libraries.

We welcome proposals from a variety of disciplines and perspectives to contribute to the conference discourse. We also encourage faculty and research students to submit joint proposals for paper presentations, colloquia, or panel discussions. Proposals are invited that address issues on Books and Publishing through one of the following categories:

Theme 1: Publishing Practices: Past, Present and Future
Theme 2: Reading, Writing, Literacy and Learning
Theme 3: Books and Libraries

Presenters may also choose to submit written papers for publication in the fully refereed International Journal of the Book. If you are unable to attend the conference in person, you may still join the community and submit your article for peer review and possible publication, upload an online presentation, and enjoy subscriber access to the journal.
