Dear Dr. Eggert,
I am the Coordinator of Contributing Scholars Programs at the Modern
Language Association, and I am writing regarding two opportunities for
your members to contribute to the/ MLA International Bibliography/ and
share important scholarship in your field. The MLA is currently seeking
new field bibliographers, and we are also accepting applications for
three-year /MLA Bibliography fellowships/. Because we would like to
enrich our coverage of Korean literature and language, we believe that
members of the Association for Korean Studies in Europe might welcome
the opportunity to become contributors to the Bibliography.
The/ MLA International Bibliography/ database is an essential humanities
research tool providing access to print and electronic books and
articles published on modern languages, literatures, dramatic arts
(theater, film, television, opera, and radio), folklore, linguistics,
pedagogy, rhetoric, and writing studies. It is compiled by the staff of
the MLA Office of Bibliographic Information Services with the
cooperation of approximately 100 volunteer specialists called field
bibliographers. The primary responsibility of bibliographers is to
record the bibliographic information of scholarly documents and to
define their subject, content, and form.
Field bibliographers for the /MLA International Bibliography/ perform an
important service for the profession and receive institutional
recognition while deepening their knowledge of the field, sharpening
their research skills, and exploring new areas of inquiry.
For your members willing to submit at least one hundred citations per
year over the course of a three-year commitment, we are accepting
applications for /MLA Bibliography/ fellowships. Applications must be
received by 1 April 2021 for our fellowships that run from 1 July 2021
to 30 June 2024. On completion of the fellowship, fellows receive a
stipend of $500 and a certificate presented at the MLA Convention awards
ceremony. For fellows attending training sessions at the MLA Annual
Convention, conference registration fees are waived.
For more information about becoming a field bibliographer, members can

I am also attaching a flier about our fellowships, in case it makes it
easier for you to share the information about this opportunity.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Best regards,
Chriselle Tidrick
