Fields of Knowledge, publisher of the Infography
(http://www.infography.com), is seeking accomplished scholars in all areas
of the humanities to submit citations to recommended research sources about
their subject specialties. In return, scholars receive royalties and other
benefits, if their submissions are accepted for publication.

Scholars must cite exactly "six superlative sources" of information, from
any type of media, and may optionally cite any number of "other excellent
sources." College professors can easily submit citations from course syllabi
or citations chosen from the bibliographies of books or articles they have
written.
