Mount Royal University in Calgary, Alberta, Canada will be hosting the True North Science Boot Camp from Wednesday, June 10 to Friday, June 12, 2020.


Call for Proposals from Librarians 


The theme of the 2020 True North Science Boot Camp is Re-imagining Undergraduate Research. This annual event brings together librarians and STEM researchers for three days of exciting science lectures and social events, and provides opportunities for librarians to learn more about science and the research process, discuss best practices, and share ideas and experiences. 


We would like to include the innovative work of STEM librarians as part of the broader program. We therefore invite proposals from colleagues wishing to share interesting work they are conducting on any aspect of STEM librarianship. Presentations should be brief, approximately 20 minutes, and will be followed by a question period. There is no requirement that librarian presentations necessarily conform to the conference theme.


Submission deadline: Monday, February 3, 2020, 5 PM MST
