Papers and panels will be divided by disciplines (e.g., History, Literature) as well as by subjects (e.g., "The Development of Nigerian Literature"). As much as possible, papers will be assigned to particular panels based on similarities in theme or location. After the conference, prominent scholars will be asked to introduce and edit the leading papers in different volumes that will reflect the range of themes and disciplines.
