Welcome

The VT Libraries Professional Development Portal offers frequent, timely, and relevant information for assisting faculty and staff in staying up to date with current trends and opportunities. Training events, conferences, webinars, and CFPs will be posted regularly. Use the tabs at the top to view lists of recommended conferences, webinars, publications, and other sites. The Applause tab lists recent contributions made to the profession by VT Libraries faculty and staff.

If you would like to submit a CFP or other related call for participation, please contact me, Rebecca Miller, directly (millerrk at vt dot edu). Expired CFPs and past deadlines are removed as soon as possible in order to keep this resource current. Many thanks!

Call for Contributions: Comics Through Time

Contributors are needed for an upcoming 4-volume historical encyclopedia of comics, to be entitled COMICS THROUGH TIME and to be published by Greenwood Press. Most entries have already been assigned to contributors, but numerous entries remain unassigned. A full list of the entries, including word lengths and due dates, can be found at https://spreadsheets1.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AnTUvZkxh2zZdGdyQWtFWThSd1hnX2tNaW4tLTlkMkE&hl=en_US#gid=0. 


Entries that do not include an author name have yet to be assigned.


A fuller description of this project can be found at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ewtr_YFt--VAtqnjEtvkdoQZNA2xRdfu-b27n2AbDDs/edit?hl=en_US.

Please contact the editor, M. Keith Booker, if you are interested in contributing entries to this project. Include a c.v. or other summary of your qualifications with your inquiry. All of those who contribute five or more entries will receive a free copy of the encyclopedia, likely to sell for hundreds of dollars. All contributors will receive free access to the electronic version of the encyclopedia.
