Opportunity: Writing/Publishing for New Librarians

Kimmy Szeto, MRSQ – Electronic Resources Reviews Editor is looking for writing proposals for the Music Reference Services Quarterly eResources Column. The column provides a forum for librarians to publish their experiences with digital technology related to music and the humanities in their work in the library and classroom. Share with the music library community about a new web resource, an online tool, a mobile app, a technology project, or a novel way to use an existing product or service!

 

Please contact her at kimmy.szeto@baruch.cuny.edu if you are interested. She will send you reviewer guidelines and submission dates for upcoming issues. Feel free to bring your ideas to the table, or simply ask her for suggestions (more below). She is more than happy to guide you through the publication process upon request.

 

The next publication deadline is December 15 for the first 2017 issue (and quarterly thereafter).
