Hi Ray,

I tried to do a co-sponsored session with AERA on research previously but found that there was a charge for the room.  I was informed that we (RHoF) did not pay for rooms and had limited resources.  Does this mean that there will be a budget for such co-sponsored meetings?

Just wondering.  Happy to help with AERA.  Could possibly co-sponsore with two SIGS or three— Language and Social Processes, Reading and Writing.  Just a thought or two.

Best,

Judith

It is my sincere desire to promote the service, leadership, and scholarship of the members of the Reading Hall of Fame.  As President-Elect, I am charged with promoting our presence as an organization at literacy related conferences. To that end, I am writing to begin the process of organizing co-sponsored sessions at literacy related conferences where the Reading Hall of Fame has a history of making co-sponsored presentations as well as soliciting any other potential organizations where RHF members might feel they want to explore the opportunity to do so (e.g. Society for the Scientific Study of Reading, American Educational Research Association, Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, American Reading Forum, European Reading Conference).

If you are interested in preparing a co-sponsored proposal yourself or in collaboration with other RHF colleagues, please let me know.   Also, please get in touch if you would be willing to take the lead on preparing a co-sponsored program proposal for literacy related research or professional conferences where the RHF might be represented.

Let me know if any of you are willing to prepare and/or take the lead on submitting proposals for one of these conferences scheduled for the upcoming year (2017).  I am more than willing to reach out and do what I can to help with these organizations and proposals if we have members who will step up and take leadership on a proposal.

I will coordinate, track, and report out at our annual meeting the success of RHF in providing intellectual leadership at the 2017 literacy related national and international conference venues nationally and internationally.
