The Publications Committee of the Literatures in English Section,
Association of College and Research Libraries, is calling for proposals for
contributions to a book with the working title of TEACHING LITERARY
RESEARCH: CHALLENGES IN A CHANGING ENVIRONMENT. Contributions to the book
should address the challenges faced by faculty and librarians when teaching
the research process or research methodologies to students in language and
literary studies. Literary studies and their supporting library
collections can be simultaneously conservative and cutting-edge. "The book"
continues to be of utmost importance to the discipline, but networks,
databases, and digital works all impact the research process of the
literary scholar. This collection of essays will attempt to make sense of
these challenges and examine new approaches to teaching research methods to
students of all levels.
Proposals should include the following information:
1. Working title of chapter.
2. A one page summary or a one page outline of the contents and approach
of the chapter.
3. An explanation of the significance of this chapter / how this chapter
differs from what has already been published.
4. Estimated length. (Range: 3,500 to 15,000 words)
5. Publication record of author(s). If the author has no previous
publications related to the book's topic, include a statement about the
author's qualifications relevant to this chapter.
6. Name, mailing address, e-mail address, phone, and fax numbers of
author(s) of this chapter.
Deadline for proposals:
All proposals must be postmarked or received by email no later than
December 31, 2002.
Proposals should be submitted to:
