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

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
