</b>Although there exists a growing body of professional literature
dedicated to helping librarians write winning grants, publish
peer-reviewed journal articles, and pen books, few tools exist to guide
librarians through the process of crafting compelling conference
proposals. In the absence of resources addressing this unique type of
writing, developing clear and concise presentation pitches can be a
daunting task. But,it doesn’t have to be. Developed by the workshop
facilitator over a number of years, the LASTT model
provides an easy-to-implement scaffold for isolating and addressing the
most impactful elements of the conference proposal. Attendees of this
workshop will learn to implement the model through a series of guided
exercises. By the end of this session, participants
will be able to identify, describe, and apply each component of the
LASTT model (landscape, absence, side-effect, treatment, takeaways) to
the development of a proposal for an upcoming conference. As part of
this session, scaling descriptions from a blurb
(e.g., 100 words) to an in-depth synopsis (e.g., 500 words) will also
be discussed.</span></p>
