TaPRA is run for and by its membership through its Working Groups. For this reason, neither the TaPRA executive nor the conference organizers receive or accept proposals for papers themselves. All proposals must be made directly to a TaPRA Working Group. Each Working Group specifies its own focus, format and conference theme available on its web page.
The deadline for proposals for all Working Groups was Friday 30th April 2010. A conference schedule will be available shortly.
