TLA 2011 Conference Program Proof
Printer-friendly version
Welcome to the 2011 edition of Kathy P's Program Proofing Page.
TAG! YOU'RE IT!
There's a link at the bottom of the page to the updated TLA 2011 Conference Program text as revised by Conference Steering Committee members and select TLA staff in a grueling 2-day marathon that left us all red of eye but unflagging in our determination to make this year's publication the best ever! Now we need YOU to proof the text for your program(s) and add any missing information or let us know about any problems you see.
Whether you view the document online or download it to your computer, you will need to search for your event number(s) and then check all of the details:
- Are you the correct contact for this event?
- Are all your speakers listed, are their affiliations correct, and are their names spelled correctly?
- Are the date and time of the event correct?
- Is the title (if different from original submission) acceptable?
- Does the scope note convey the content of the program as you understand it?
Speakers are entered alphabetically in all program listings. Primary sponsors are listed first, with all co-sponsors listed also in alphabetical order. The format for titles complies with other TLA publications and follows the Chicago Style Manual.

PHOTOS The designation "photo" or "photos" by an event number indicates that we want pictures of particular speakers or presenters for that program. Please get high resolution electronic files or actual photographs to us as soon as possible. Contact Mary Ann if you have questions about useable files. |
SCOPE NOTES (program descriptions)
Please carefully review each scope note for each of your events. You may find that your scope note and program title have changed. The committee and TLA staff members edit the text to conform to program standards, enhance clarity, and increase the marketability of each presentation. If you feel strongly that the revisions conflict with what you and your speaker had in mind, please communicate this to us immediately. IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT YOU AND YOUR SPEAKER ARE ON THE SAME TRACK, WE ADVISE YOU TO REVIEW EACH SCOPE NOTE WITH THE SPEAKER WHO WILL BE MAKING THE PRESENTATION.
FEEDBACK
We are on a very tight schedule and hope to distribute the conference printed program to members after the first of the new year. In order to incorporate any additions and/or corrections, they must be received (let me say that again, louder and in purple) MUST BE RECEIVED -- in writing -- at the TLA office by NOON on Thursday, November 11, 2011. Information can be sent by fax: 512/328-8852; or by email Kathy and Elise.
Thanks for your input and hard work;
it's going to be a great conference
in Austin, April 12-15, 2011.
