Speaker List
AUPresses invites you to join our Speaker List—a resource designed to help Annual Meeting organizers discover new voices and perspectives across the community.
If you’re interested in being considered as a moderator or panelist for the 2026 Annual Meeting submit your details—name, contact information, and areas of expertise—via our Speaker Interest Form and you’ll be added to our bank of potential speakers for session organizers to review as they plan their sessions. Because the Annual Meeting will be held in-person, all speakers are expected to attend the Annual Meeting in Seattle.
Note! Joining the Speaker List does not guarantee that you will be placed on a panel for AUPresses 2026. Session organizers will use the list as a resource when identifying speakers.
The Speaker Interest Form is open through January 16, 2026. Sign up to share your expertise with the AUPresses community today!
Call for Proposals
The submissions period for proposals is now closed. Submissions will be reviewed by the 2026 Annual Meeting Program Committee, co-chaired by Antonia Pop (Toronto) and Jason Fikes (Abilene Christian). The Committee will begin notifying accepted proposals by the end of this year.
