 Call for Manuscripts: "The Buzz: Technology in Journalism and Mass
 Communication History"

 American Journalism, the quarterly journal of the American Journalism
 Historians Association, announces a call for manuscripts for a special theme
 issue focusing on technology and history.

 The issue, edited by David T. Z. Mindich, will be called "The Buzz:
 Technology in Journalism and Mass Communication History" and is scheduled
 for Fall 2000.   The deadline for submissions is February 1,  2000.

 The theme of technology is an inclusive one.  Topics could include but are
 not limited to: how printing, the telegraph, or other devices changed or
 challenged journalism;  implicit comparisons between older technologies and
 newer ones including ways in which the public viewed future technology; and
 the role of technology in formulating or reformulating minority communities.
 The term "technology" itself could be approached in a number of ways,
 including electronic, electric, and pre-electric (including printing)
 communication aids.  Manuscripts that include graphics are encouraged.

 Manuscripts, which should follow the American Journalism guidelines for
 submissions, should be sent to

 David T. Z. Mindich
 Dept of Journalism and Mass Communication
 Saint Michael's College
 Colchester, VT 05439
