Call for Proposals: SHARP Conference, “Communities and Values of the Book”

Rochester, New York, will host the 2025 SHARP Conference on July 7–11, 2025, with the theme “Communities and Values of the Book.” This theme encourages participants to examine communities and values, separately or together, and explore their intersections within book culture and bibliographic history. SHARP invite proposals for individual papers, lightning talks, workshops, and fully planned panels. Proposals should think expansively about the theme topics, including voices from marginalized and non-mainstream communities. Abstracts are due by December 1, 2024.
