> Dear Colleague,
> We are pleased to launch the first call for papers for the newly

> institutions. The Journal, Libellarium, will be published by the
> University of Zadar, Croatia.
> For the first issue we are inviting two kinds of papers, both dealing with
> the history of books. The first should contribute to discussions referring
> to the substance of book history and its methodological issues (What is
> the book history today? Could it be an independent scientific discipline?
> What is the state of research in different countries? Etc.).
> The second should address a wide range of questions regarding the use of
> sources in book history. Contributors are encouraged to interpret the
> topics such as bibliographies as a source for the book history, printers'
> catalogues and advertisements as a source for the book history, book
> dedications and forewords as a source for the book history, missionary
> reports as a source for the book history and so forth. We welcome papers
> taking an interdisciplinary approach that productively combine history,
> literary, and sociology with book history methodologies.
>
> All potential contributors are kindly requested to send an abstracts with
> a title (500 words maximum) by 1 February 2007 to e-mail address
> [log in to unmask] The final versions of papers are expected by 5 April
