av福利社 member meetups are virtual programs intended to help members connect with one another and explore a variety of topics. Meetups are free and open to current members. Past meetups have provided advice on publishing in Jav福利社, writing for av福利社 Archipedia, and crafting a strong session proposal. Other meetups have connected members who are emerging scholars, adjunct and contingent faculty, or employed outside of academia.

Have an idea for a Meetup you’d like to see or host?  Email Anne Bird, Director of av福利社 at membership@sah.org.

Upcoming Meetups

Book List and Book Share

Tuesday, June 17, 2025, 12-1 p.m. CT

Join av福利社 member Barbara Opar to hear about the Monthly Book List she publishes in the av福利社 Newsletter.  Hundreds of scholars and librarians consult this list to see what their libraries (or they) should purchase and have on their shelves.  

Barbara Opar is the Librarian for Architecture and French Language and Literature with the Syracuse University Libraries. An embedded librarian, her responsibilities include reference and consultation, collection development, instruction and outreach. She has served as the Booklist editor for av福利社 for over 20 years.

As part of this Member Meetup, we are inviting members to share about their newest book, or book-in-progress.  This is a first-ever, ultra-fast book presentation, limited to 1 minute.  If you can summarize your book in 60-seconds, email av福利社@sah.org. On a first come-first serve basis, we have room for 20 books.   You do not need to present a book to attend this Meetup, but it should be informative and fun.
