If you're interested in exploring and celebrating newly published historical reference works (books, websites, and databases), please consider joining the Best Historical Materials Committee of the RUSA History Section.
Every year, the committee reviews nominations of outstanding works, reviews a short list, and names the most outstanding titles to a public list. Please review our list of winners.
Membership on the Best Historical Materials Committee is one of the most fun opportunities in ALA! You'll work with colleagues who are passionate about history, learn more about the latest in scholarly publishing, and brighten the lives of quite a few scholars.
Please use the ALA Volunteer Form to express your interest.
