VRA Bulletin Call for Content: Spring 2019 Open Access Issue!
The VRA Bulletin is recruiting content for its first ever Open Access issue due out in Spring 2019!
In addition to being openly accessible, the Bulletin now offers a hybrid peer-review model in which authors can select whether or not to have a submission peer-reviewed.
If you’re interested in serving as a reviewer, please reach out to the Content Editor, Hannah Marshall.
In light of the Bulletin’s expanded access and peer-review option, this call is open to a wide variety of article types including but not limited to:
- Scholarly articles
- Case studies
- Editorials
- Reviews of books and other resources
- Project updates
- Reports from working groups and professional organizations
Examples of timely topics that we’d welcome articles on (and which you may already be thinking about and working on...):
- Spring conference presentations (the VRAB editorial team is happy to work with presenters to adapt papers, posters, and talks into articles!)
- Art + Feminism Wikipedia edit-a-thons
- DPLA
- Visual resources in institutional repositories
- Digitization projects - whether in-house, grant-funded, outsourced, collaborative, etc.
- Others!
Articles should be submitted using the online system by Friday, March 1st.
The editors are available to discuss and advise on topic ideas prior to submission, so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions!
Sincerely,
Hannah Marshall, Content Editor
Amy Lazet, Production Editor
