HEB ADVISORY BOARDS

The HEB Advisory Board

Humanities E-Book emphasizes the scholarly standing of its authors and the quality of its publications. The ACLS has therefore established a Policy Advisory Board, appointed and chaired by the president of the ACLS, to provide policy oversight for HEB and to advise the Directors on the evolution of the undertaking. The board is composed of leading scholars, editors, librarians, and university administrators, all selected for their involvement in the problems and challenges of scholarly communication.

The members of this board include:

Pauline Yu, President of The American Council of Learned Societies

Steven C. Wheatley, Vice President, The American Council of Learned Societies

David M. Kennedy, McLachlan Professor of History, Stanford University

Carol Mandel, Dean, Division of Libraries, New York University

Deanna Marcum, Associate Librarian for Library Services of the Library of Congress

James Neal, Vice President for Information Services and University Librarian, Columbia University

Ann Okerson, Associate University Librarian, Yale University

Title Review Board

The HEB forms its lists using a variety of approaches. Of prime importance has been the participation of the Learned Societies. The Societies either formed committees to draw up lists of titles or provided ACLS with lists of their annual award winners. Suggestions for the list were also solicited from individual scholars within the societies whom we asked to contact us directly or through the society's project liaison. These lists were then reviewed by a panel of noted scholars. This panel includes:

Jean Allman - University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Barbara Andaya - University of Hawaii at Manoa
