On May 16th, the day before the conference, we will distribute the conference program to all registered attendees. This program will include a link to our Topia world and Zoom links for presentations for easy access.
Call for Virtual Book Fair
If you published a book between 2020 and 2021 or if your book is about to be published in 2022, DH Unbound invites you to its Virtual Book Fair. The event will give authors the opportunity to connect with other members of the community for informal conversations and to answer questions about their work.
The Virtual Book Fair will take place on May 17th between 10:45 am and 12:00 noon Eastern and on May 18th between 7:45 pm and 9:00 pm Eastern. Participants will be scheduled in a session based on their time zone.
The Virtual Book Fair will take place in Topia. A link to the DH Unbound 2022 Topia World and a map will be provided in the conference program. During the Virtual book Fair, you will be able to stand by the image of your book cover and participants will be able to come to talk to you about your book.
If you want to apply, please send the title, publisher, description, and publication date of your book to Barbara Bordalejo (bbordalejo@gmail.com). The deadline for proposals is April 10th. We will notify the selected authors by April 15. Priority will be given to publications that directly address the subject of the conference.
Presenters must register for the conference to participate in the Virtual Book Fair.
