The Research Society for American Periodicals (RSAP) is pleased to announce the first ProQuest-Research Society for American Periodicals prize. The ProQuest-RSAP Prize is an annual $1000 award that recognizes the best articles on American periodicals submitted by pre-tenure or independent scholars, and published in peer-reviewed academic journals. Applicants to the ProQuest-RSAP prize must be current members of RSAP when they submit their articles. The article must have been published, or accepted for publication, in a peer-reviewed academic journal between January 1, 2008 and December 2009. The first annual prize will be awarded at the American Literature Association (ALA) conference in San Francisco, CA, May 27-30, 2010. Articles will be judged by a blind peer review of three scholars chosen by the RSAP Advisory Board. Applicants should submit a registration form, and either ONE electronic copy of their articles (.pdf file), or THREE hard copies, with identifying references removed/obscured to Susanna Ashton at sashton@clemson.edu, 810 Strode Tower, Clemson, SC 29634-1503 by December 1, 2009. RSAP encourages submissions not only from individual authors but from journal editors as well. Submissions are not limited to work utilizing electronic databases. The winner and two honorable mentions will be notified by January 15, 2010 and will be featured as panelists on an RSAP-sponsored distinguished papers panel for ALA 2010. Questions about submissions should be directed to prize committee chair, Cynthia Patterson, at cpatterson@poly.usf.edu.
