The University Libraries, in partnership with the Provost's Office, the Office of the Vice President for Research, and Virginia Tech's chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, are co-sponsoring and coordinating the sixth annual Virginia Tech Authors Day to honor the authors' academic contributions to the university.
The occasion will be marked by an introduction of the authors, a display of representative books, and a presentation by Katrina Powell of the English Department, who will discuss the books for which she was awarded Phi Beta Kappa’s 2010 Albert L. Sturm Award for Excellence in Faculty Research, followed by a reception. The event is scheduled for Thursday, February 17, 2011, at 4:30 p.m. in Newman Library. Please save this date, formal invitations with details of the event location and program will be mailed in January, 2011.
We would like to solicit your assistance in obtaining a list of books (not journal articles or book chapters) that you have authored/co-authored or edited, that have a publication date of 2010. Please send names and lists of publications to Lori Lee, secretary in the University Libraries Research and Instructional Services department, for inclusion in the event.
We request that you respond by Wednesday December 22, 2010 to allow library staff sufficient time to compile the list and where possible secure copies of the publications not already in our collections. The compiled list will be displayed online and updated regularly,.
