Then you need to be aware of the publication procedures for non-serial publica­ tions developed by the ACRL Publications Com­ mittee. Your publication proposal will go through the following steps on the way to becoming an ACRL or ALA publication. Step One. Fill out a “Preliminary Publication Information Form ,” available from ACRL Head­ quarters, early in the planning stages of your proj­ ect. This form asks for basic information about the scope and content of the proposed publication and the individual(s) responsible for developing it. Send the completed form to Mary Ellen Davis, ACRL’s publications officer, at ACRL Headquar­ ters. Step Two. The ACRL publications officer re­ views the proposal and offers ALA Publishing Ser­ vices the first chance of accepting the project as an ALA publication. This “right of first refusal” is specified in the operating agreement between ALA and its divisions. Step Three. ACRL’s Publications Subcommittee on Non-Serial Proposals and the ACRL publica­ tions officer review the content and viability of the proposal and make a recommendation as to its fea­ sibility. (In some cases, an outside reader with ex­ pertise in the subject area will be asked to review the publication for editorial content. This review will next be considered by the Subcommittee and the program officer.) The Subcommittee will re­ view and act upon publication proposals through­ out the year, as well as at ALA annual conferences and midwinter meetings. Step Four. After reviewing the recommenda­ tions of the Subcommittee (and any outside review­ ers) the ACRL publications officer then accepts, rejects, refers back to ALA Publishing Services, or asks for further development of each proposal from the author or sponsoring body. Step Five. If your proposal is accepted, submit your completed manuscript to ACRL H eadquar­ ters for further review by the Subcommittee and the ACRL publications officer. For further inform ation, contact Mary Ellen Davis, ACRL Publications Officer, ACRL/ALA, 50 East Huron St., Chicago, IL 60611-2795; (312) 944-6780, x287. ■ ■ Planning grants for public programs on the Columbian Quincentenary The 500th anniversary of Christopher Colum­ bus’s first voyage to the New World will be ob­ served internationally in 1992.
