February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES. In solidarity and support, Megan Abbott (DARE ME) Chris Abbott (LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE; CAGNEY AND LACEY; MAGNUM, PI; HIGH SIERRA SEARCH AND RESCUE; DR.

Books, Prints, and Travel: Reading in the Gaps of the Orientalist Archive
BOOKS, PRINTS, AND TRAVEL: READING IN THE GAPS OF THE ORIENTALIST ARCHIVE ELISABETH A. FRASER Writing to Madame de Re´camier during an arduous voyage to the Levant in 1817 and 1818, the beleaguered Comte Auguste de Forbin pleaded passionately for letters from her to alleviate the horrors of his journey: a difficult passage at sea, the death of a hired travelling companion, heat and plague. ‘I need them, I have been cruelly tested. Never was a voyage more unfortunate,’ he wrote. Subse- quent letters describe his ‘terrible fear’ of the plague in Constantinople (‘death is everywhere’), and the ‘devouring heat’ of Egypt.1 And yet Forbin later made light of the journey’s difficulties in his published account, the Voyage dans le Levant (1819), a sentiment reinforced by Franc¸ois-Rene´ de Chateaubriand in his review: ‘The Comte de Forbin’s publication will finally prove that today one can do quickly and easily what in the past demanded much time and effort.’2 Similarly, the Comte Marie-Gabriel de Choiseul-Gouffier’s magnificent Voyage pittoresque de la Gre`ce (1782–1822), one of Forbin’s primary models, gives no hint of the woes that dogged its production: revolution, legal battles, work lost in transport, dishonest printers, artists making off with commissioned drawings, and so on. To follow Choiseul-Gouffier’s trail through the archives is to wade in rancour, regret and litigiousness to a degree unsuspected by the reader of his serenely beautiful Voyage pittoresque.3 In a departure from earlier writing on colonialism, scholars today expect to find this kind of contradiction in the accounts of European travellers about in the world. -

“The Scholarly Monograph's Descendants,” Mary M. Case, Ed., T
Association of Research Libraries (ARL®) Clifford A. Lynch, “The Scholarly Monograph’s Descendants,” Mary M. Case, ed., The Specialized Scholarly Monograph in Crisis, or How Can I Get Tenure if You Won’t Publish My Book? (Washington, DC: Association of Research Libraries, 1999), pp. 137‐148. The Scholarly Monograph's Descendants Clifford Lynch, Executive Director, Coalition for Networked Information Introduction This paper looks at the possible evolutionary paths that the current printed scholarly monograph may take, paying particular attention to the ways in which technical, economic, and cultural factors may shape this evolution. It does not predict the demise of today's printed scholarly monograph, but suggests that it will coexist with a series of successors that will offer new points of balance among technical and economic constraints and opportunities and that will provide authors with new ways in which to communicate their research. For some works and purposes, the new forms will be superior; in other cases, the traditional printed monograph will likely remain the preferred form. I begin with a brief examination of the current state of the scholarly journal in its transition to electronic formats–or at least to electronic distribution. This transition is arguably more advanced and taking place on a broader scale than is the evolution of the monograph, and thus it may offer insights into what we can expect for the monograph. At the same time, I will argue that much of the experience with the journal may be misleading when extrapolated directly to the future of the monograph. I have chosen words carefully: I believe that what is happening to the journal is best described as a transition or migration, while what we will see with the monograph is the evolution of digitally based successor genres that will coexist with the current print monograph. -

Proofreading Tips
Author: Dr. Sara Beam, RSU Writing Center Coordinator Proofreading Tips Definition: Proofreading is the very last step in the writing process. In the publishing world, proofreading takes place after a document, such as an advertisement or article, has been created and edited. The document goes to press, but before it is printed, “proofs” are created. The last check of the document before a full run is printed is therefore called “PROOFreading.” At this point, you are sick of the paper because you have (ideally) been working on it for days if not weeks. But you need to visit it with fresh eyes one last time or two. Here are some ways to take a new perspective (literally) on your work: 1. Pay attention to MS Word’s spellchecker and grammar checker. Though it does not catch everything, it’s often very helpful. 2. Read the paper aloud or have a friend read it aloud to you. 3. Read or listen to the paper several times, each time focusing on one particular issue, such as spelling, subject-verb agreement, capitalization, punctuation, consistent formatting, etc. 4. Check for typos by reading the paper one paragraph at a time, one sentence at a time, one word at a time BACKWARDS. 5. Create a checklist based on your teacher’s assignment sheet, and check the paper to make sure you’ve met all requirements. 6. Take a break. Take a nap. Sleep on it. Time away from the project will help clear your head. In fact, that’s one of the reasons teachers encourage you to begin papers weeks ahead of time. -
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.
