2009 Berks Article Prize Announcement The Berkshire Conference announces its Article Prize, which carries with it a $500 award to the author. The prize is for an article in any field of history written by a woman who is normally resident in North America, published during 2009. Articles need not focus on women's history, and many past winners have not. Entries may be submitted either by an author or by the journal. Journals are limited to three nominations. The deadline for submitting entries is January 15, 2010. Please be sure to send three xerox copies (or offprints) of the article. Do not send the entire journal in which the article appears. Jointly published articles are acceptable, as are articles that have appeared in collections, but only if they were published for the first time in 2009. They must not be reprints of articles published in previous years. Journals should indicated in a cover letter that they are submitting articles for the prize competition, and include a contact phone number and e-mail address at the journal. Authors should include contact information in a cover letter. Please send three copies of the article to: Elsa Barkeley-Brown 2115 Francis Scott Key University of Maryland College Park, MD 20742 The 2009 award will be announced in Summer 2010, and in a full-page advertisement in Perspectives, the newsletter of the American Historical Association.
