The 2010-11 NMRT Endnotes (formerly Scholarship, Research, and Writing) Committee invites you to submit an article for publication in spring 2011.
The publication, Endnotes: The Journal of the New Members Round Table, is dedicated to providing an opportunity for new librarians to get published and to make an impact as library professionals. Along with the publication opportunity, authors will gain experience with the peer-review and editing process. New librarians from all types of libraries are encouraged to submit proposals.
The publication will also include scholarly reviews of recently published books and web reviews on topics relevant to new librarians. We are also accepting applications to be considered for the pool of book reviewers.
Please submit a proposal describing your article topic and research methodology in less than 250 words. Remember to include your name, job title, contact information and ALA member number. Authors are required to be NMRT members at the time of proposal submission.
Proposals or questions should be submitted to NMRTEndnotes @ gmail. com by close of business on November 30, 2010. The tentative deadline for first drafts of accepted proposals is January 30, 2011.
Book and Web reviewer application guidelines:
Please submit a resume, brief statement of qualifications and interest in the position, and writing sample. A sample book review is preferred, but other writing samples will be accepted. Remember to include your name, job title, contact information and ALA member number. Authors are required to be NMRT members at the time of application.
Applications or questions should be submitted electronically to NMRTEndnotes @ gmail .com by close of business on November 15, 2010.
Reviewers will receive review copies in mid-December, with reviews due in mid-January.
Thank you,
Endnotes Committee
