Call For Nominees

Digital Medievalist will be holding elections at the end of this month for four positions to its board. Board positions are for two year terms and incumbents may be re-elected. Members of the board are responsible for the over all direction of the organisation and leading the Digital Medievalist's many projects and programmes. This is a working board and if you are willing and able to commit time to helping Digital Medievalist undertake some of its activities (such as hands on copy-editing of its journal) then please take this into consideration when nominating yourself or accepting a nomination.

Information about Digital Medievalist is available at its website. See particularly: - http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/about.html - http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/bylaws.html

We are now seeking nominations (including self-nominations) for the annual elections.

If you are interested in running for these positions or are able to recommend a suitable candidate, please contact the returning officers: James Cummings and Roberto Rosselli Del Turco at:
