by Daniel O'Donnell 30 Dec '07

30 Dec '07

Posted for Michael Buckland (buckland(a)ISchool.Berkeley.EDU). Please excuse cross postings, and feel free to distribute. The Information Studies Department at the University of California, Los Angeles, announces an opening for the newly created Martin and Bernard Breslauer Chair in Bibliography (see http://is.gseis.ucla.edu/jobs/breslauer_announcement.pdf ). Endowed Chairs at UCLA are reserved for distinguished scholars and teachers at the Full Professor level. It is expected that the Breslauer Professor will contribute to the long-standing leadership and innovation in all areas of bibliography of the Information Studies Department, here understood to include: the study of the collection and description of books and other textual works; the study of the production and use of textual works as physical objects; and the history of the book, of book arts, and of print culture. Emergent areas in which the Department is also interested include: the history of transitions from print to digital formats, and of the impact of such transitions on the book arts, on publishing and access systems, and on reading; the design of bibliographic systems that offer scholars in the arts and humanities access to creative and intellectual works; and approaches to the study of bibliographic collection and description that are informed by artistic and humanistic perspectives. For more information, see our website: http://is.gseis.ucla.edu/. UCLA is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. We encourage applications from members of underrepresented groups. -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Department Chair and Associate Professor of English Director, Digital Medievalist Project http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/ Chair, Text Encoding Initiative http://www.tei-c.org/ Department of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Vox +1 403 329-2377 Fax +1 403 382-7191 Email: daniel.odonnell(a)uleth.ca WWW: http://people.uleth.ca/~daniel.odonnell/

Call for Nominations: TEI-C Council Chair
by Daniel O'Donnell 20 Dec '07

20 Dec '07

Christian Wittern, who has served so ably as TEI Council Chair since 2003, will be stepping down at the end of his third term on December 31st, 2007. To assist it in its deliberations, the TEI Board is seeking nominations (including self-nominations) for candidates to replace Professor Wittern in this important post. Nominees need not be members of the TEI, its Board, or Council. The successful candidate will be appointed to both the Board and Council for an initial term of two years. As an officer of the Consortium, the Council Chair is not remunerated. The Council is assigned a significant budget for travel and other costs including technical support and editorial assistance, however. The Council Chair is responsible for directing the activities of the Council and its workgroups. This involves maintaining and developing the Guidelines and proposing and assisting in the development of training documents and tutorials, technical services, and collaborations between the TEI and other organisations. In keeping with the emphasis of the 2007 Members' Meeting, the board is particularly interested in candidates who share the Board's interest in improving the Consortium's work on outreach, education, and collaboration. The Board intends to appoint a replacement for Professor Wittern within the next six weeks. Nominations should be directed to the Executive Secretary, Chris Ruotolo (ruotolo(a)virginia.edu), no later than 1200 UTC on January 11, 2008. For further information, please feel free to contact the Consortium Chair, Daniel Paul O'Donnell (daniel.odonnell(a)uleth.ca) or any member of the Consortium Board (see http://www.tei-c.org/About/board.xml for a list with contact addresses). -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Department Chair and Associate Professor of English Director, Digital Medievalist Project http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/ Chair, Text Encoding Initiative http://www.tei-c.org/ Department of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Vox +1 403 329-2377 Fax +1 403 382-7191 Email: daniel.odonnell(a)uleth.ca WWW: http://people.uleth.ca/~daniel.odonnell/ -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Department Chair and Associate Professor of English Director, Digital Medievalist Project http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/ Chair, Text Encoding Initiative http://www.tei-c.org/ Department of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Vox +1 403 329-2377 Fax +1 403 382-7191 Email: daniel.odonnell(a)uleth.ca WWW: http://people.uleth.ca/~daniel.odonnell/
