MSU Libraries needs your help!

Please help to celebrate MSU faculty scholarship. For the last twenty-three years the MSU Libraries have recognized current and retired faculty and staff who have authored, edited, or translated (or co-authored, etc.) a book, monographic electronic resource or musical work during the previous year. This recognition will occur at a reception with President Stanley and Provost Woodruff sponsored by the MSU Libraries. In addition, a copy of a print work is added to the MSU Faculty Book Collection, which is prominently located in the Main Library, when available.

Although the subject liaison librarians work diligently to identify all MSU faculty who published in calendar year 2022, changes in scholarly communication, the publishing industry, and the formats that support scholarship mean that we must rely on all of you to help us make our recognition as complete as possible.

They look forward to recognizing:

• Monographic print works authored, edited, or translated by MSU faculty/staff 
• Print or ebooks 
• Musical works 
• Films 
• First and second editions of a work 
• Open access monographic works of scholarly import published with editorial, peer review and Creative Commons (CC) licensing 

The Libraries requests your help in forwarding this message to faculty and asking them to complete this form as soon as possible for any 2022 publications: https://lib.msu.edu/collections/hollander/suggestion/ .

Although they applaud the scholarship involved in producing articles and chapters in books, they regret they cannot acknowledge them at the reception.

The Faculty Authors Reception is scheduled for Thursday, September 29, 2022, 3:00-5:00 PM at the MSU Main Library.
