Conference A Great Success - And There's More!

If you participated in the 58th Annual Conference of the International Communication Association: Communicating for Social Impact, we hope your experience was a positive one and valuable to your continuing research. As you know, ICA members are the top communication scholars in the world. We are sure you will agree that the research presented at the conference was of a very high caliber!

Now that the conference has passed, we have a special invitation for you! If you presented at the conference or one of the preconference seminars and would like to expand on your conference experience, we invite you to visit the Division forum for the Division under which you presented and post comments on or solicit questions about the research.

If you are an ICA member and a member of the Division, you have the ability to add new topics and make comments on others. It's very easy: simply log in to MyICA (the "Members Only" section of the website) and select the forum from the drop-down list on the lower right section of your MyICA page, (just above the list of your sections). If you have a project on which you would like to invite collaboration, post to the RESEARCH COLLABORATION forum. The link for that forum is found just under the drop-down list.

Check it out now! Here's the link to sign-in.

NOTICE

Beginning in March 2009, the Journal of Communication will publish book reviews electronically.  Book reviews will be electronically indexed with the Journal of Communication and will be available as an electronic supplement through the Taylor and Francis Journal of Communication website, as well as through ICA's newsletter and website. The Book reviews will be archived and will be searchable online. Eventually book reviews will no longer appear in print. This move will allow for more space to be devoted to publishing original articles while simultaneously allowing JOC to publish timely book reviews of social scientific and humanistic communication research without page constraints. Accordingly, JOC solicits book reviews for 2008 books and for early-released 2009 books, and invites scholars interested in writing critical review essays for multiple works to contact Book Review Editor Elisia Cohen (elisia.cohen@uky.edu).
