Happy Friday!
We’ve gotten several inquiries asking if people are still able to submit a proposal for a topic listed as “proposal forthcoming” on the Chapter List. The answer is “Yes!” We have some thoughts about how we might handle that which include: separate chapters addressing two specific areas of a topic,  possibly asking people to co-write a chapter, etc.

Keep the questions coming. We are excited about this interest.

 

Best,
Traci

*First call for authors*

 

Dear ARLIS/NA Museum Division Members and other ARLIS/NA Colleagues,

 

For those of you who weren't at the Museum Division Meeting at the ARLIS/NA conference, we announced that we are in the contract phase with publisher Rowman & Littlefield for the publication, The New Art Museum Library! To learn more about this publication, please see the Introduction and Proposal that we submitted to the publisher. 

 

We need your expertise to make this publication a success. Please see the Chapter List and let us know where you would like to contribute. 

 

·         The writing style for chapters should be similar to what one would submit for Art Documentation:

·         We are looking for essays on a topic, rather than case studies

·         Word count should be close to 2,500 words

·         Use Chicago Manual of Style guidelines

See more on Art Documentation’s Contributor Guidelines: https://arlisna.org/publications/publications/257-art-documentation-contributor-guidelines.

 

Learn more by joining our conference call: For anyone who is interested, but would like more information, we’ll be hosting a Conference Call on May 1, 2019 at 2pm EST/11am PST. During the conference call Traci Timmons and Amelia Nelson will introduce the concept of the book and answer questions that potential authors may have.

·         Name & position title
