| Summary: |
Even though we have just returned from the 73rd Annual Meeting
of the Society for American Archaeology, it is time to start planning
your participation in next year’s meeting in Atlanta, Georgia.
We are excited to hold the annual meeting in Atlanta due to its
accessibility from virtually everywhere and its springtime beauty.
Following is the revised Call for Submissions for SAA’s 74th
Annual Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, April 22-26, 2009. Beginning
with the 2009 annual meeting, the only submission format will be
electronic via the web. Last year, there was a record breaking number
of submissions (over 2,800), and all but two sessions were submitted
via the web system. The Board of Directors has opted to make the
web the sole means of submission. Of course, you may submit via
the web and print a summary sheet to mail or fax payment, if you
do not want to pay via the secure web payment system.
The web-based system will be open for submissions on April 22,
2008. For those who submitted in 2008, you will notice enhancements
and changes based on user feedback. Once available, you will be
able to access the system by visiting the SAA homepage (www.saa.org)
and clicking the “2009 Annual Meeting Submissions” button.
The only submissions deadline is Wednesday, September 10, 2008.
There is no grace period, as all submissions are electronic. There
are no late fees, as nothing may be submitted after the deadline,
and changes to a submission may be made only up until the deadline,
Wednesday, September 10, 2008.
