Title & Abstract
Titles are limited to 80 characters. Please type your title in title case, i.e., start principal words with capital letters. Do not use capital letters for prepositions, articles, or conjunctions, unless it is one word. Do not use all capital letters or all small letters in your title. Do not put quotes around the title, unless you are emphasizing terms or book titles.

​

Abstracts are limited to 5000 characters. You may copy and paste your abstract from a word processing program.

​

Fields of Interest

ASA has added a “fields of interest” option, where you can tag your proposal with up to three keywords. The chairs will use these keywords to find proposals that fit their panels.

​

Second Choice Division/Related Group 
Please select a second choice division or related group for your proposal to be considered under. This does not count as a second proposal.

​

Format Selection
If applicable, please indicate what type of format you’d like to give this presentation in: Panel Only; etc.

Please indicate that the work is your own.

​

Selecting & Adding Authors
First, all authors must have a complimentary ASASymposium.com account. If they do not, they can create one here. Once they have done this, you can search for them in the database. Search by last name only.

An author search will produce a list of authors under the “Choose From List of Authors” table heading. To add an author, click “Add” in the “Action” field.  If they are an author, but not planning to present and attend the conference, please click “Add Non-Presenting Co-Author.”

Continue this process until you have searched and added all the applicable authors from the association database.

​

Additional Instructions for Full Panel Proposals
After you’ve added your first paper and its authors, click “Add a Paper.” Enter the new paper’s title, abstract, presentation format, and then add the applicable authors.

To add chairs or discussants, search by last name under “Add Other Participants” on Step 3. Chairs and discussants will also need to have an ASASymposium.com account to be added.

​

Submission Confirmation
Once you have completed a submission, you will receive an automated email from do_not_reply@allacademic.com. The email will arrive within minutes of completing your submission. If you do not receive the email, it may be because of one of the following reasons:

1. You did not complete the submission process properly. Go back and review the above help notes to make sure you have completed the process. Make sure that you have completed the upload paper steps.

2. Your email address is incorrect. If you log in with an email account you no longer use, you will not receive email notifications. Please update your email with your association.

3. Your email has very sensitive spam blockers that are blocking the incoming email. You can check your “junk” email inbox, add the domain “@allacademic.com” to your safe list, and talk with your email provider to resolve this issue.

4. You can also check online that your proposal was properly uploaded by clicking on “Submit or Edit Submission” followed by “Papers & Posters” or “Sessions” on the right side (depending on which type of submission you are checking on). A list of your submissions will appear below by title. Click on the desired submission title. Your proposal was successfully uploaded, if on the Submission Summary form, under the “Proposal” sub-heading, the file name that the system assigned to your proposal is listed.

 

Once you receive your email confirmation, do not reply to All Academic. The email will not be viewed or answered. For questions about your submission, the process, its status, or any other issues, please contact ASA at info@assyrianstudiesassociation.org
