The Winter 2012 MLA Newsletter is now available online. Read the issue for a report on the 2011–12 Job Information List, Michael Bérubé’s president’s column on how members can get more involved with the association, and Rosemary G. Feal’s editor’s column on “doing the humanities.”
October Job Information List PDFs
PDFs of the English and foreign language editions of the MLA Job Information List (JIL) are available online. The October lists contain live links provided by advertisers as well as links to apply for positions that are still accepting applications through Interfolio. All who apply for positions from the JIL will receive Interfolio Dossier accounts at no cost. With an account, job seekers can submit application letters and CVs electronically for free. More information about the dossier service is available in the JIL section of the MLA Web site.
