SUMMARY:SF in SF with Fran Wilde and Henry Lien
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, June 25\, when writers Fran Wilde and Henry Lien meet for an evening of readings and conversation with Bay Area writer Cliff Winnig. \nFran Wilde‘s first novel\, Updraft\, won the Nebula and Compton Crook awards; it was followed by Cloudbound and Horizon\, completing the Bone trilogy. Her novels and short stories have been finalists for six Nebula Awards\, a World Fantasy Award\, four Hugo Awards\, four Locus Awards\, and a Lodestar. They include the Hugo and Nebula finalist The Jewel & Her Lapidary\, “Unseelie Brothers\, Ltd.\,” “Clearly Lettered in a Mostly Steady Hand\,” and “A Catalog of Storms.” Her short stories appear in Asimov’s Science Fiction\, Tor.com\, Beneath Ceaseless Skies\, Shimmer\, Nature\, Uncanny Magazine\, and multiple years’ best collections. Her nonfiction has appeared in publications including TheWashington Post\, The New York Times\, NPR\, and Tor.com. Her poetry has appeared in Fireside Fiction\, The Marlboro Review\, Articulate\, and Poetry Baltimore. Fran holds an MFA in poetry and an MA in information architecture and interaction design.

SUMMARY:Teaching the History of the Book: A Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Teaching the History of the Book (University of Massachusetts Press) is the first collection dedicated to book history pedagogy. Edited by Matteo Pangallo and Emily Todd and featuring contributions from a diverse range of teachers\, scholars\, and practitioners in literature\, language studies\, history\, book arts\, library science\, and archives\, the collection presents a variety of methods for teaching book history both as its own subject and as an approach to other subjects. Each of the 39 chapters describes lessons\, courses\, and programs centered on the latest and best ways of teaching undergraduate and graduate students both about and with book history. \nBeginning with chapters that apply particular pedagogical and critical theories to the book history classroom\, the book then covers effective ways to organize courses devoted to book history\, classroom activities that draw upon book history in other courses\, and an overview of selected print and digital tools for book history classes. Contributors draw on their own experiences in the classroom to bring to life some of the rich possibilities for teaching book history in the twenty-first century. \nA virtual presentation by the editors and selected contributors to Teaching the History of the Book (University of Massachusetts Press\, 2023)
