The Health Science Librarians of Illinois annual conference will be both in-person and virtual in 2025. The conference will be held virtually on November 11-13, 2025 and in-person on November 14, 2025 in Champaign, IL. This year\u2019s theme is \u201cNavigating the Future Now.\u201d HSLI is seeking proposals for both Lightning Talks and Poster Presentations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have presented, or plan to present, a poster or lightning talk at another meeting this year (such as MLA or Midwest Chapter\/MLA), recycling content at HSLI is totally okay! Posters will be in electronic format only. If you\u2019d prefer a lightning talk, you can submit a small set of slides (5 or less). Each presenter will have 5-10 minutes to discuss their poster or lightning talk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ideas can include, but are not limited to, any area of librarianship such as instruction, leadership, diversity-equity-and-inclusion, program development, communication, collections and collection management, outreach, and evaluation. Incorporating this year\u2019s conference theme is appreciated but not required. Student submissions are encouraged. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For either submission type, presenting author(s) must register for the conference and be available virtually<\/strong> to present (exact time TBD). There may also be an opportunity to present in person. More information about the conference can be found at the HSLI website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
