SBL Annual Meeting
The Annual Meeting is the largest gathering of biblical scholars in the world. Each meeting:
- showcases the latest in biblical research,
- fosters collegial contacts,
- advances research, and
- focuses on issues of the profession.
The world's largest exhibit of books and digital resources for biblical studies is on display at the congress. At this meeting, scholars benefit from sessions on religion, philosophy, ethics, and diverse religious traditions.
The 2008 Annual Meeting is in Boston from November 21-25 at the Hynes Convention Center on Boylston Street.
Proposing a New Program Unit
The SBL Program Committee encourages members to propose new
program units related to texts or areas of interest that are not represented on
the Annual Meeting program.
A check list of required items is available here.
New unit proposals are reviewed at within the SBL office for completeness in
relation to the check list and then by
the Program Committee as a whole. Proposals
should include the items on the check list and should describe the relationship
of the proposed new unit to currently existing units. Specific program plans, including projected
presenters and presentation titles, should be included.
Proposals and questions related to developing a proposal
should be sent via email to Matthew Collins, SBL’s Director of Congresses.
Renewing a Program Unit
