CALL FOR PAPERS: Making Research: Research in the Age of Digital Reproduction (MLA Annual Convention, Philadelphia, 27-30 December 2009, panel sponsored by the MLA’s Division on Methods of Literary Research ): What role(s) do electronic resources play in literary research; what role(s) should they play in the future? Papers may treat any form of “digital reproduction”of primary or secondary sources (electronic citation indexes; full text and other databases; digital archives of documents, images, sound files; texts made available via mass digitization) as well as born-digital materials and digital communication (social networking, blogs, etc).. Potential topics include: what we have vs. what we need; digital possibilities (new questions, new paradigms and methodologies, transformative interdisciplinarity) vs. digital limits (of materials, of technology, of institutional structures); how to integrate digitally focused research into teaching, graduate training, faculty evaluation, tenure and promotion. 250 word abstracts to Maura Ives (m-ives at tamu dot edu) by March 20, 2009.
