American Meteorological Society’s (AMS) 104th Annual Meeting</a>. For this conference, sessions will be virtual and in-person (<b>hybrid format</b>). The theme for the 104th AMS Annual Meeting is “Living in a Changing Environment.” With this theme, the AMS

<br>
<u><b>Call for Papers</b></u><br>
For the 2024 conference and in alignment with the AMS theme, ASLI is focusing on the changing scope of science librarianship. This includes changes to librarianship through services offered, changes in collections, and even changes in collaboration. The nature
of the librarian role is to evolve to meet user needs in a changing environment.<br>
<br>
ASLI is particularly interested in proposals related to:<br>
<ul>
<li>Library Tools and Tips</li><ul>
<li>As a perennial favorite, these short talks are opportunities to describe any tool or innovation members have found useful. Talks on technology failures and lessons learned are especially welcome, as are proposals from students using innovative strategies
around information.</li></ul>
<li>Science Librarianship 101</li><ul>
<li>This session will involve looking to the future of the profession and cover a wide range of science librarianship-related topics.</li></ul>
<li>Changes in Collections</li><ul>
<li>This session will focus on the changing landscape of science collections. </li></ul>
<li>Keys to the TRAIL (<a href="http://www.technicalreports.org/trail/search/" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-loopstyle="linkonly">Technical Report Archive and Image Library</a>)</li><ul>
<li>Some of the most underutilized materials in academic libraries are older U.S. government agency technical reports. This session looks at TRAIL and other collaborative resources relevant to science librarians.
</li></ul>
</ul>
We welcome papers on any aspect of these topics (or any other topics of interest to atmospheric science
<i>and</i> general STEM librarianship) including best practices, diversity, equity, or inclusion issues, collection development, and addressing innovative methods of providing service during the pandemic and post-pandemic eras.<br>
<br>
ASLI will again <b>co-sponsor Joint Sessions</b> with the AMS Board (EIPT) on Data Stewardship. Papers that describe innovative technological advances, curation and preservation of data, and solutions that help us understand and meet data needs in the field
are most welcome.</div>
