  • Book Self-Publishing Best Practices
    Montana Tech Library Digital Commons @ Montana Tech Graduate Theses & Non-Theses Student Scholarship Fall 2019 Book Self-Publishing Best Practices Erica Jansma Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.mtech.edu/grad_rsch Part of the Communication Commons Book Self-Publishing Best Practices by Erica Jansma A project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of M.S. Technical Communication Montana Tech 2019 ii Abstract I have taken a manuscript through the book publishing process to produce a camera-ready print book and e-book. This includes copyediting, designing layout templates, laying out the document in InDesign, and producing an index. My research is focused on the best practices and standards for publishing. Lessons learned from my research and experience include layout best practices, particularly linespacing and alignment guidelines, as well as the limitations and capabilities of InDesign, particularly its endnote functionality. Based on the results of this project, I can recommend self-publishers to understand the software and distribution platforms prior to publishing a book to ensure the required specifications are met to avoid complications later in the process. This document provides details on many of the software, distribution, and design options available for self-publishers to consider. Keywords: self-publishing, publishing, books, ebooks, book design, layout iii Dedication I dedicate this project to both of my grandmothers. I grew up watching you work hard, sacrifice, trust, and love with everything you have; it was beautiful; you are beautiful; and I hope I can model your example with a fraction of your grace and fruitfulness. Thank you for loving me so well.

  • How to Read a Historical Monograph Like a Historian October 2018 Gks & Jr
    How to Read a Historical Monograph Like a Historian October 2018 gks & jr 1. Start with a BOOK REVIEW Professional historians do all the time. If you want to know a book well-for a discussion or for a research project-the book review is of course no substitute for reading the book. But a good book review will help you to understand the significance of the book you are going to read, its argument, its place in a broader conversation that has been going on. Book reviews have never been so easy to find and access. For a simple search, you might use JSTOR, a vast archive of scholarly journals. It contains the full text of journals running from their first year of publication up to a five years ago. To use JSTOR (http://www.jstor.org, accessible on campus), enter the title you'd like to search for, scroll down and check the box that says history journals, scroll down further and check the box that says reviews, then click on search. Other useful sources: Academic Search Premier, Historical Abstracts, American History and Life, H-Net Reviews. Of course, you have to read book reviews (as all else) with a critical eye. Reviewers, you will see, often disagree about the value of a book, an approach, or an argument. 2. Read the INTRODUCTION very carefully Ask yourself the following questions: * What historical problem is the author addressing? * Are there other interpretations (the work of other historians) that the author finds lacking? Why? * What evidence (what sources) is the author going to examine? * What questions is the author asking about the subject? * What are the answers to these questions? * What is the thesis of the book? All of these questions should be answered in the introduction.

  • The Victorian Book Review in the New Media Moment
    Reading in Review: The Victorian Book Review in the New Media Moment Elizabeth Carolyn Miller Victorian Periodicals Review, Volume 49, Number 4, Winter 2016, pp. 626-642 (Article) Published by Johns Hopkins University Press DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/vpr.2016.0042 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/644186 Access provided by University of California, Davis (4 Jan 2017 21:51 GMT) Reading in Review: The Victorian Book Review in the New Media Moment ELIZABETH CAROLYN MILLER This article revisits the nineteenth-century book review as a genre that naturalized new reading practices for a new media moment. As Lisa Gitel- man has influentially argued, “New media are less points of epistemic rup- ture than they are socially embedded sites for the ongoing negotiation of meaning,” and indeed, while print was not historically “new” in the nine- teenth century, it was nevertheless experiencing a new media moment.1 With the acutely steep rise of published periodicals in this period, not to mention concomitant rises in the number of published newspapers and books, the nearly incalculable volume of new print material made for a qualitative, not just quantitative, shift in the identity of print as a medium.2 The book review, as a genre, demonstrates with particular clarity how the print medium was changing, and it suggests how nineteenth-century read- ing practices were adapting in conjunction with the medium. Aimed at audiences that could never hope to encounter the sublimity of new print material directly, the book review emerged as a meta-genre for nineteenth- century print, one that reflected the changing identity of the book within a broader print culture.

  • Dot Tower Challenge
    Dot Tower Challenge In this fun but challenging activity, kids become engineers, using critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity to plan, design, build and improve an index card tower. Fun Facts/Information: Ÿ Towers technically are defined as structures that usually are taller than they are wide. Ÿ Towers generally are distinguished from masts by their lack of guy-wires (a tensioned cable designed to add stability to a free-standing structure), and commonly are built to take advantage of their height. Ÿ Towers also can stand alone on the ground or as part of a larger structure or device, such as a fortified building or an integral part of a bridge. Ÿ Having existed since primitive times, towers have served as structures that support bridges, and even prisons (think of the classic fairy tale, Rapunzel). Ÿ The Tokyo Skytree, completed in 2012, is the tallest tower in the world at 634 meters (2,080 feet). It is the world's second tallest structure after Burji Khalifa, a 2,716.5-foot skyscraper located in the United Arab Emirates. Ÿ The Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas, Nevada is the 19th tallest observation tower in the world, standing 350.2 meters (1,149 feet) tall, and was constructed in 1996. Objective: Ÿ Challenge children to be engineers and build the tallest dot tower out of index cards and sticker dots. Ÿ Reinforce that engineers are problem solvers who invent, design, analyze, build and test machines, computer systems, structures, gadgets and materials to fulfill functional objects and requirements. This all is done while considering the limitations imposed by practicality, regulation, safety and cost.
