Women's Studies Librarian's Office Announces New Issue of Feminist Collections

MADISON, Wis. – The Women’s Studies Librarian’s Office announces the publication of the latest issue of their journal, Feminist Collections (v. 31, no. 4, Fall 2010). Edited by JoAnne Lehman, this issue features articles on topics such as women managers, women architects, and the Riot Grrrl movement of the 1990s.

Feminist Collections reviews the latest print, electronic, and audiovisual resources for research and teaching in women's studies. Recent book reviews have treated such subjects as women of color in academia, pregnancy in modern America, feminist evangelicalism, and girls' studies. There are guides to new bibliographies and reference works, critiques of videos, announcements of new websites and blogs, and news of out-of-the-way materials—pamphlets, reports, rare book dealers' catalogs, microforms, and more. Thoughtful articles by experts explore women's publishing, Internet resources, library organization, archives, and other tools for feminist scholarship. New periodicals and special issues of journals in other disciplines are announced in each issue.

Faculty, staff, and students are welcome to come to the Women’s Studies Librarian’s Office, located on the fourth floor of Memorial Library, to read the issue, or look for it in campus libraries. Most of the reference works reviewed may be found in the office's reference collection, non-circulating, but catalogued in Madcat.
