Researching New York 2012:
Science, Technology, and the Environment
November 15th & 16th, 2012
University at Albany, SUNY

The organizers of the 15th annual Researching New York Conference once again invite proposals for panels, papers, workshops, roundtables, exhibits, and documentary and multimedia presentations on any aspect of New York State history in any time period and from any perspective. We especially encourage proposals that explore the history of science, technology, and the environment in New York.

Researching New York brings together historians, archivists, museum curators, graduate students, teachers, documentarians, and multimedia producers, to share their work on New York State history. Presentations that highlight the vast resources available to researchers, as well as scholarship drawn from those resources, are encouraged.

Proposals are due by July 1, 2012. Complete panels, workshops, media presentations, or sessions are preferred; we will consider partial panels and individual submissions. For complete sessions please submit a one-page abstract of the session, a one page abstract for individual presentations, and a one-page curriculum vita for each participant. For individual submissions, include a one-page abstract and one-page vita.

Submissions must include name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address. Please submit electronically to resrchny@albany.edu. All proposals must detail any anticipated audiovisual needs or time constraints. All conference participants are expected to register for the conference.

We also seek commentators for panels. If you would like to comment on a panel, please contact us at resrchny@albany.edu, indicating your area of expertise, along with a one-page vita.
