<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">We’re excited to invite you to submit chapter proposals for our forthcoming ACRL book,
<i>Applying Library Values to Emerging Technology: Tips and Techniques for Advancing within Your Mission</i><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><b><u>The Book</u></b><span style="font-family:"MS Gothic",serif">
</span><span style="font-family:"MS Mincho ,serif",serif"><br>
<br>
</span>As emerging technologies become easier to use, public service information professionals of all kinds are increasingly tasked with making decisions regarding which technologies to use, promote, and provide support for. These technology-mediated exchanges
can play an important role in how information, and the library, is perceived and used.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">This book will share perspectives on how to interpret and apply the ALA's Core Values of Librarianship in the context of emerging technologies as well highlight case studies of organizations and applications
that exemplify relevant library values. It will be grounded in theory, but be made applicable to a variety of libraries by situating discussions within a framework for decision-making.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">Authors will retain copyright of their work, and after one year the entire book will be made available open access.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><b><u><br>
Structure</u></b><span style="font-family:"MS Gothic",serif">
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">The book will be organized into chapters corresponding with the values identified in the
<a href="http://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/statementspols/corevalues"><span style="color:#0C0BA2">ALA's Core Values of Librarianship</span></a>, but individual chapters do not need to tie directly to any particular interpretation of those values (see “Chapter
Details”). Authors should consider library values in the context of emerging technology, and what the implications are for making decisions about library practice.
<span style="font-family:"MS Gothic",serif">
</span>The editors are interested in considering a wide variety of perspectives and forms of submissions in order to be relevant to a broad audience<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">Each section will include both:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">• Practical case studies of how to effectively use a particular technology in a library setting<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">• Theoretical models for understanding and interpreting the relevant library value (or values) in context of a relevant technology<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">Most submissions should include at least some elements of theory and practice, but can focus on any aspect. We will also consider submissions featuring just one element (an important theoretical consideration
that could impact other works, or a particularly impactful case study). <span style="font-family:"MS Gothic",serif">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;text-autospace:none"><b><u>Copyright</u></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none">Priority will be given to producing the best possible final work that is meaningful to a wide audience rather than necessarily “original research,” so authors may reuse portions of previous works when copyright
allows. If doing so, authors are expected to revise their work and provide at minimum an introduction and conclusion that fit with the theme of this volume.
