The Constance Fenimore Woolson Society is extending the deadline for proposals for the ALA 2018 conference in San Francisco to January 15, 2018. Please feel free to send along any and all proposals that you feel would fit our “disappearing women” panel for both Woolson and/or her contemporaries. I have pasted the current CFP below:

The Constance Fenimore Woolson Society is seeking proposals on the theme of “disappearing women” for the annual ALA conference in San Francisco, May 24-27. In this vein, we encourage papers about Woolson and/or her contemporaries that might cover but are not limited to the following subjects: 

· Recovered women writers in the classroom  

· Recovered women writers in the canon 

· ‘Disappearing’ women writers in the literary canon

· Social invisibility in the Nineteenth Century 

· Narratives of disappearance 

· Women writers and archival absence

Please send a brief email by January 15, 2018 to jmafleming@utexas.edu introducing yourself and telling us about what you would like to discuss. We highly encourage unconventional presentations rather than standard conference papers.
