OnLine Audiovisual Catalogers, Inc. (OLAC) is an international
organization for catalogers concerned with all types of nonprint
materials.  Through conferences, workshops, publications, and e-mail
lists, catalogers exchange information and enjoy expert and practical
advice on cataloging audiovisual materials.

The OLAC Executive Board is issuing a call for a speaker or panel of
speakers to present a brief discussion on a current hot topic in the
cataloging and metadata communities as it affects audiovisual and
nonprint media cataloging.  Possible topics might include: Visual
resources, Bibframe, RDA, FRBR, library linked data, non-MARC metadata,
or other, but with a focus on AV/nonprint formats.

The 30-45 minute presentation or discussion would be held during the
OLAC Membership Meeting at the ALA Annual Conference in Chicago, on
Sunday, June 30, between 4:00 and 5:30 p.m.  The presentation will
directly follow the general membership meeting agenda.

If you are interested in presenting a discussion, please submit your
proposal in an abstract not more than 200 words, by Friday, May 24,
2013, to:

Liz Miller

OLAC VP/P-Elect
