CFP: Community Literacy Journal (9/15/06; journal issue)
The peer-reviewed Community Literacy Journal seeks book and/or multimedia
reviews for Spring 2007 issue. We are soliciting reviews of books and/or
multimedia, along with book/multimedia suggestions for review, that
address any social, cultural, rhetorical, or institutional aspects of
community literacy.
We invite you to submit reviews that you feel should be included in our
budding conversation about literacy work that exists outside mainstream
educational and work institutions. It can be found in institutionalized
programs devoted to adult education or lifelong learning or work with
marginalized populations, but it can also be found in more informal, ad
hoc projects.
One goal of the journal, and of the review section in particular, is to
extend and expand beyond conventional book reviews to include more visual
and digital representations. By multimedia, we mean: digital film, DVD,
website, or other visual representations of communities where literacy
issues may be represented, discussed, displayed (just to name a few
examples).
Reviewers should include in their e-mail the following contact information:
Reviewer's full name
Reviewer's title
Institutional address
Telephone number
Fax number
E-mail address
Book/Multimedia title
Author's name
Publication information, including: date, location, and publisher
Book/Multimedia Review contributions should be 500-750 words in length,
but longer submissions will be accepted for reviews that incorporate
multiple titles.
Deadline: For Spring 2007 issue -- September 15, 2006
Format: MLA citation and endnote style
