Scholarly Editing Publication and 2016 CFP
We are pleased to announce the publication of the newest issue of Scholarly Editing: The Annual of the Association for Documentary Editing (vol. 36, 2015), online at www.scholarlyediting.org. Scholarly Editing publishes peer-reviewed editions of primary source materials of cultural significance while continuing the tradition of publishing articles and reviews about scholarly editing. This year, we have introduced a new feature, “Reflections on the Editor’s Craft,” where we will publish the views of experienced editors on practical aspects of editing. As always, the editions represent diverse materials from a variety of fields, and this year we present editions of a nineteenth-century American manuscript drama; an antislavery poem’s circulation and recreation through nineteenth-century American newspaper reprintings; a sixteenth-century Italian play; and a twentieth century experimental autobiography presented in a provocatively nonlinear, interactive edition. We are pleased not only to present editors with a rigorously peer-reviewed publication platform, but also to share fascinating documents from cultural history with the reading public. All of this material is available freely online and is completely open-access. Please see below for our call for editions and articles for next year’s issue, as well as the full table of contents for the 2015 issue.

2015 Annual Members’ Meeting and Conference of the TEI Consortium
Call for Papers, Panels, Posters, and Demonstrations

Deadline: Monday 4 May 2015

We invite proposals for individual papers, panel sessions, posters, and demonstrations for the 15th annual Conference and Members’ Meeting of the Text Encoding Initiative Consortium (TEI—http://www.tei-c.org).
The power of the TEI is realized in interactions, between texts, between programs, between practices, and between members of its community. This theme invites considerations of technical and social applications and approaches, both to the practice of encoding and to the development of local and international communities of use. It includes training in the TEI and related areas, for example incorporating the digital into traditional forms of editing. It addresses integration of TEI-encoded texts at scale, for example in libraries and large corpora, and acknowledges that new research questions and external developments require continuous innovation.
Possible Topics
This list is not exclusive.
- Connecting the TEI
- TEI across corpora, languages, and cultures
- TEI, formal ontologies and the Semantic Web
- TEI and beyond: interactions, interchange, integrations and interoperability

- Animating the TEI
- TEI outreach, within and between communities of practice
- TEI, editors, readers, collaborators
- TEI and sustainability
- TEI and visualization
- Innovating with the TEI
- TEI tools for analysis, publication, and infrastructures
