Call for Chapters: Gen-X perspectives on libraries and librarianship

Call for Chapters: Gen-X perspectives on libraries and librarianship

This is a call for previously unpublished papers on Gen-X perspectives on libraries and librarianship, to go into an anthology co-edited by the wonderful Rebecca Tolley-Stokes of ETSU's Sherrod Library, who also edits TLA's journal *Tennessee Libraries*. It looks like they want submissions from all types of libraries and perspectives (academic, public, et cetera),
and they've given some suggested topics but appear to be open to others. Publishing and presenting can be make-or-break factors in the job search, as well as great ways to contribute to the life of the profession, and this looks like a really neat opportunity to get in on it. Only a short summary is needed for the proposal; you don't have to write the full paper unless it's accepted.

Y'all are welcome to holler at me to run interference with Rebecca for
questions, or you can contact her directly at the email given at this link.
