CCWW Offers One-Stop Access to Work on Contemporary Women's Writing

Wednesday 10 December 2014

The Centre for the Study of Contemporary Women’s Writing (CCWW) is pleased to announce the CCWW SAS-Space collection. Part of the School of Advanced Study’s e-repository, SAS-Space, at the University of London, this collection contributes to CCWW’s online resources for the promotion and facilitation of research on contemporary women’s writing.

The CCWW collection groups together articles, papers and interviews on post-1968 women’s writing across and beyond our core language areas of French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish (and Catalan and Galician) and aims, with expansion, to offer one-stop access to interesting work on contemporary women’s writing. Open access to research is now increasingly required by funding bodies and academic institutions and is accepted by most journal and book publishers. Inclusion in the CCWW searchable collection can help bring your work to the attention of other scholars in the field and gain valuable citations.

You are invited to send us your articles and other items for deposit. The arrangement is via a non-exclusive licence, which means you can deposit items in our collection that are already in your own or other institutional e-repositories or archives, pre- or post-publication items, conference, seminar or workshop papers, work-in-progress papers, interviews with authors, etc. For chapters in books, you will need to check with the publisher concerned, but there is rarely a problem with chapters more than two years after original publication. Introductions to monographs may also be included, with your publisher’s permission – it is all good publicity for the book! Work submitted to the CCWW collection may be written in English or the language of study, and may be on any topic in the field of contemporary women’s writing.

Please send your item(s) to [email protected] as a Word document or pdf, together with details of what the item is (whether already published [in which case, please include full details]); if not, whether the work was presented at an event (with dates and titles).

The CCWW collection is at: https://sas-space.sas.ac.uk/view/divisions/igrs-ccww.html. A link to the collection is also available direct from the CCWW homepage - click on the SAS-Space button at the bottom of the page.
