As loyal readers of What's Up will know, the Canadian Association for the Study of Book Culture / Association Canadienne pour létude de l'histoire du livre was founded last June so that scholars working in a broad range of disciplines in Canadian universities can meet on the common ground of studies of book and print cultures. U of S doctoral candidate Brendan Edwards is a member of the new group's Executive. The Association now invites memberships: $40 per year ($100 for 3 years), or $20 per year for graduate students, sessional instructors, and independent scholars. Graduate students should provide proof of status. Membership is for the calendar year, but initial memberships will carry through until 31 December 2005. Please send your cheque, along with your name, institution if any, address, phone/fax/email contact information, (and a brief note about your research interests if you wish) to:
