The Co-Editors will play a critical role to achieve this goal. This position is volunteer based.

  • Select/recommend exhibitions for review (suggest the exhibitions and then solicit reviewers, or will the reviewers themselves suggest an exhibition for which they could provide a review)

  • Review and edit texts

  • Post review on Exhibitions SIG WordPress site

  • Promote the reviews on ARLIS/NA and the SIG listservs

  • Post call for reviewers for next issue on ARLIS/NA and SIG listservs
