The Association of Print Scholars invites thematic proposals for its sponsored panel at the 114th College Art Association (CAA) Annual Conference to be held in Chicago, 18-21 February 2026.

The APS-sponsored panel may be related to any period, theme, or aspect of print scholarship. We encourage proposals that transcend chronological or geographic boundaries, as well as those that engage current theoretical interests in materialism, archival theory, bibliographic studies, history of ideas, or social history, including feminisms and critical race studies.

If you are interested in chairing a panel, please submit a title and 250-word (max) abstract that describes the subject of your session. Co-chaired proposals are welcome. Once the theme and chair of the panel are selected, the panel will solicit contributors through CAA’s open call. Chair or co-chairs must be members in good standing of APS and CAA.

Submissions should include a 2-page CV and should be sent to caacoordinatorprintscholars.org.

The deadline for consideration is April 20, 2025.
