Greetings ANSS Colleagues,

Have you come across a great resource you want to share with the ANSS community? The ANSS Resource Review and Bibliography Committee (RRBC) invites you to submit a review that could be included in the next publication of ANSS Currents. Articles can be written covering any resource in anthropology, sociology, criminal justice, and related fields. Reviews can be short or long, depending on whether you want to do an overview or a deep-dive into a topic. Reviews of resources related to equity, diversity and inclusion issues are very appropriate and encouraged. We welcome reviews on a variety of resources, such as:

• databases
• research tools
• free online resources
• books
• collection development tools
• instruction resources

If you have an idea for a review, please contact ANSS RRBC co-chairs Tom Durkin at thomas.durkin@wisc.edu  and Virginia Pierce at vpierce@statelibrary.sc.gov  

Your review will be published in ANSS Currents, the newsletter of the ACRL Anthropology & Sociology Section, in the "Resource Review" section. You can see past reviews here: https://acrl.libguides.com/anss-rrbc. ANSS Currents is a great way to share with your colleagues and add a publication to your resume! The spring deadline for submitting a review will be March 20, 2023.

Reviews submitted to the Resource Review and Bibliography Committee will go through an open and collaborative peer review process. You can see additional information about that process here: https://acrl.libguides.com/c.php?g=824630&p=6013360. The ANSS Currents Guide for Authors also provides helpful guidelines: https://anssacrl.wordpress.com/publications/editing-publications/anss-currents-guide-for-authors/ . 

If you have questions, please contact the ANSS RRBC co-chairs. We are happy to provide more information.

Thank you!

Virginia Pierce and Tom Durkin co-chairs
