Paper proposal decision notifications were issued on May 1, for the 2020 17�Թ�Annual Meeting. A record number of paper proposals were accepted, and the 2020 academic program is the largest and broadest to date. Notifications were auto-generated from ASOR’s online abstract management system powered by Oxford Abstracts and sent to the e-mail address associated with the abstract submission. Co-authors should check with the person who submitted the abstract to find out if their paper was accepted. Please check your spam folder for an e-mail from “17�Թ�2020” if you submitted an abstract and have not yet received a decision notification.

Please contact Arlene Press, ASOR’s Director of Meetings and Events, if you submitted an abstract and have not received a decision notification, or if you have any questions about the 2020 17�Թ�Annual Meeting.

Because of the uncertainty of travel during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and because of the changing situation for many of our members, 17�Թ�extended the Early Bird registration rate until July 8, 2020. In late June, we will re-evaluate the situation and see if a further extension seems warranted.
