Message from organizers Deb Stewart and Charlotte Williams: in view of other prudent University measures to limit in-person activities during mid-January, we have decided to cancel this session in the series. We hope that we will be able to offer part 3 on February 17, when participants can share what they have written and receive collegial feedback. Please check for updates about part 3 in mid-February. We thank you for your continued support and interest! 

Co-sponsored by the Museum Library and the Penn Museum Graduate Advisory Council

Join us for a three-part series where you will learn how to craft and publish a book or exhibition review! Reviews are excellent ways to deep dive into material, build your academic C.V.s, and dip your toes into publishing! This three-part series is designed for students to have a deliverable book review at the end that is ready to submit to journals in the spring of 2022.

Part 2: Writing "Bootcamp"

This optional session is for students who have successfully been assigned to review a book. Students should come having read their book and will use this time to take their first pass at writing the review! Worksheets will be provided that help provide structure, and the facilitator will lead timed writing sections.

This workshop will be followed by Part 3: Roundtable Workshop on February 17. [We hope
