Publisher Participation in the Virtual Conference
Publishers will be interested to know that we anticipate a large turnout for this conference, perhaps even exceeding the originally projected 2,000. Attendees include
- scholars in anthropology, economics, education, history, philosophy, political science, sociology, psychology, and women’s studies
- interdisciplinary scholars that work in feminist theory, cultural theory, postcolonial theory, public policy, innovation theory, and design.
- scientists and engineers interested in the social aspects of their fields
- members of the public with an interest in the way that science and technology affects their lives
Attendees depend on the book exhibit for finding new books for class, for their research and for staying current in the field.
We have tried to put together a format that allows you to showcase your wares and allow publishers and potential authors a chance to meet and discuss new book projects.
The Plan
The conference runs for four full days, 18-21 August. Publishers can reserve a zoom meeting room during our networking hours which run twice a day, first at 13:40-15:00, Prague time, and the evening session which alternates between 22:00-23:00 and 19:40 – 21:00.
Publishers can select four sessions for $250 US or all eight for $500. Use the 4S online store to reserve and pay for either one “table” or two. https://www.4smembers.org/store/ListProducts.aspx?catid=424625
Publishers will then use our program submission platform to enter either four or eight session proposals, which will become part of the official program timetable:
Go to https://convention2.allacademic.com/one/ssss/ssss20/ and log in using the same credentials that you used in the store. Select Submit or Edit a Proposal / Submit a Social. Please include the schedule tag (e.g. ‘Tues A’) in the title of each session. This allows you to schedule your own time at the conference, and it allows you to schedule events or topics throughout your sessions, although you are also welcome to use the same description for each session. Your descriptions can contain links to collections or offers and will remain live for 60 days after the conference, accessible only by registered attendees.
