Call for Proposals: Instruction Section Teaching Methods 2026 Virtual Forum

  • 1.  Call for Proposals: Instruction Section Teaching Methods 2026 Virtual Forum

    Posted 7 hours ago

    The ACRL Instruction Section Teaching Methods Committee invites you to submit a proposal for a presentation at our 2026 Virtual Forum. The hour-long forum will be held in spring with the exact date to be determined based on availability of the speaker(s). It will feature a 45-minute presentation followed by 15-minute Q&A. The event is open and free for all participants. 

    The virtual forum is a great opportunity for librarians and library workers–both ALA/ACRL members and non-members–to showcase innovative teaching methods, assessment, and theoretical approaches. Past topics include critical race pedagogy, gendered labor and instruction, visual literacy, and assessment. See past events on the Instruction Section website. 

    Please fill out the proposal form by Monday, January 5, 2026. One proposal will be selected. Speakers will be notified by mid-February.
