Opportunity for LIS Students!! Call for Interns!

Why the Charleston Conference?
  • As many attendees will tell you, this is one of the most exciting if not the most exciting conference they have ever attended.
  • It is a unique environment where publishers and librarians are partners in the future of information resources, not vendors and customers.
  • Presentations are often at or beyond the cutting edge.
Who can participate?
  • Currently registered students in Library and Information Science Programs
  • Currently registered students in other disciplines related to publishing (especially scholarly publishing)
Why be a conference intern?
  • Student interns pay less than 10% the regular conference rate and 50% the student rate
  • Student interns have opportunities to write meeting reports for publication
  • Student interns are mentored throughout the conference
  • Student interns have a community of other interns attending the conference with them and a LIS faculty coordinators (Heidi Hoerman-South Carolina, Elaine Yontz-Valdosta)
