Dear 2020 Annual Meeting Accepted Paper Author,
 
As you know, the American Educational Research Association (AERA) announced the cancellation of a place-based and then a virtual Annual Meeting on, respectively, March 6 and 23, in response to rapidly growing concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic. 
 
This letter and the accompanying Facts and Opportunities Sheet provide additional details about the ways in which your work will be acknowledged and how you can share your contributions with the education research community worldwide, well beyond those who might otherwise have attended the place-based meeting in San Francisco.  
 
As promised when AERA announced the cancellation of the virtual meeting, every 2020 accepted paper, whether to be presented in a paper session, poster session, roundtable session, or a session submission with planned papers, will receive via email a citation to use as authentication that the paper was accepted for the AERA 2020 Annual Meeting. This email will be coming directly from All Academic from DO_NOT_REPLY@allacademic.com by Wednesday June 17, 2020. If you have an accepted paper and do not receive the citation by June 22, 2020, please email annualmtg@aera.net. 
 
Authors of individual papers scheduled to be presented at the 2020 Annual Meeting in a paper, poster, or roundtable format are encouraged to include their papers in AERA's Online Paper Repository. The Online Paper Repository provides an opportunity for authors to share their papers with a wide community of graduate students, scholars, educators, and other interested readers.  AERA offers this service to authors to expand the impact of their work, the discoverability and authentication of their papers, and their networks to other researchers who may be interested in contacting them about their research. The deadline for uploading papers to the Online Paper Repository is June 22, 2020. Detailed instructions for uploading papers to the online Annual Meeting submission system and Online Paper Repository are available online and are included in the accompanying Facts and Opportunities Sheet. 
 
Authors of accepted or invited papers are also encouraged to participate in the AERA Interactive Presentation Gallery, a new product being launched to offer a space for sharing intended presentations at the Annual Meeting (whether PowerPoint slides, handouts, or posters). The deadline to complete presentations is Friday, July 31, 2020. Authors will receive an invitation from presentation-gallery@aera.net on Friday, June 12, 2020 with instructions on how to prepare their interactive presentation. Authors who opt to participate in the AERA Interactive Presentation Gallery will receive information about proper citation. Participating in the AERA Interactive Presentation Gallery will make research accessible to a worldwide audience and available well into the foreseeable future. 
 
All authors are encouraged to take advantage of these opportunities for citation and research dissemination, which conclude the paper presentation aspects—whether invited or accepted—of the 2020 Annual Meeting. 

 
With best wishes,
