<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Thank you so much for sharing your work and agreeing to participate in the FACRL program proposal for ALA Annual 2019. Unfortunately, it appears that our break-out session
proposal to present was not chosen. There was a lower acceptance rate than usual (23%) for this ACRL Division submission, though I feel that this is still a big loss for ALA Annual attendees. Your work is high quality and relevant to all academic libraries
and I hope that we might be able to tap into your talents as possible presenters in future.

<p>Dear Craig Amos,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Thank you for submitting a proposal for an ACRL program at the 2019 ALA Annual Conference. The ACRL Professional Development Committee (PDC) has completed the review and selection process. On behalf of PDC, it is with regret that I let you know your proposal,
"Telling Our Story: Methods for Demonstrating Libraries' Academic Impact at the Administrative Level ," was not chosen for presentation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Although you may be understandably disappointed that your proposal was not accepted for the conference, please do not consider this a negative evaluation of the quality of your work, but rather an indication of the volume and quality of the proposals submitted.
With ALA’s centralized program submission process, ACRL received an exceptionally large number of program proposals for the 21 available slots. This made the review process and decisions very difficult. Only 23% of the submissions were able to be accepted
due to the limited number of program slots available to ACRL.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Thank you for submitting your work to ACRL and for your interest in the 2019 ALA Annual Conference.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Best,<o:p></o:p></p>
