For the first time ever, the 2020
Annual Meetings, hosted by SBL & AAR, will be coming to you!
Due to the serious risks to public health posed
by Covid-19, the in-person physical meeting scheduled to take place in Boston
has been cancelled and the new 2020 VirtualAnnual Meetings will
be going online November 29-December 10. We are excited about the new
opportunity for SBL and its members.
The new virtual
meeting will maintain its traditional sessions and educational opportunities,
but in a brand new format. SBL and AAR are committed to providing an
innovative scholarly exchange so that every paper accepted has an opportunity
for presentation. And the virtual publishing exhibit hall will provide you
opportunities to explore the latest publications and resources and the ability
to schedule meetings.
A virtual meeting will create new
possibilities. It will widen access for members without funding or resources to
attend an in-person meeting, including international members, students, adjunct
and contingent faculty, and independent scholars. It will open up possibilities
for both synchronous (live) and asynchronous (recorded) participation. It will
allow attendees to avoid the inevitable scheduling conflicts that prevent
participation in sessions of interest. And we are working with our publishers
to provide the latest publications to all of our virtual audience through an
online platform.
We appreciate your patience as we update
meeting schedules and dates and work to create this new meeting platform.
Please check our SBL Membership and Annual Meeting sites for the latest
up-to-date information.

an SBL-sanctioned meeting event is found to have violated the SBL harassment
policy, SBL will revoke the individual’s permission to be on the premises and
