Greetings Colleagues, I trust you're well. This is your success story description reminder. Respectfully, Sandra From: Sandra Phoenix Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2011 11:36 AM To: Hbcu-libadmin@lists.hbculibraries.org Subject: Library Success Story - Submission Guidelines - Please Do Not Reply To The List Importance: High Greetings Colleagues, I trust you're well. Today I'm celebrating the Preserving the Story of the HBCU Library Alliance project. Funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, this project will document and disseminate the history and accomplishments of our unique organization. A historical document will be written and submitted to peer-reviewed journals such as Association of College and Research Libraries. Additionally, seven documents written on specific activities of select HBCU Library Alliance members, will be disseminated via journals that do not require peer review. Dr. Shanesha Brooks-Tatum, Project Coordinator/Writer, is soliciting individual library success stories and forwards the following submission guidelines.
