A Celebration of Campus Authors: Five Years of Books

Sponsored by Murphy Library and the Provost's Office

The UW-La Crosse Celebration of Campus Authors is an opportunity for the campus community to explore and enjoy books published by campus authors from all disciplines. The celebration consists of several parts:

  • Reception: Wednesday, January 23, 2013, from 4:00 - 6:00 pm in Murphy Library Special Collections. Open to all.

  • Author Website: Provides a record of publications along with book and author descriptions.

  • Library Display: Display case featuring books from the reception. 

Call to Participate

Five-year Window - Books published in 2009 - 2013

If you are a current or former UW-L faculty or staff and have authored, co-authored, compiled, edited/co-edited, translated, or illustrated a monograph that was published in the past 5 years (2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013), we would love to highlight you and your book in our first celebration!

Submission Deadline: December 10, 2012

Please let us know if you and/or your book plan to participate by November 30, 2012.

Author Requirements

  • Please provide the library with one copy of your published book. The book will be returned to you after the event, unless you wish to donate the copy to the library. If the library already has a copy of your book, we still appreciate having another copy just for the Celebration.

    Please identify your book as being for the Celebration of Campus Authors and drop it off at the library circulation desk, or send via campus mail to Stefan Smith, Murphy Library Room 123.

  • Please attend the reception. It is not required for authors to be present during the reception, but we ask that participants make every effort to be there.  The Celebration reception centers on giving faculty and staff an opportunity to acquaint themselves with each other’s works, to exchange ideas, and to discuss publishing experiences, so we are seeking broad participation.
