1. The CFP page at the University of Pennsylvania. http://call-for-papers.sas.upenn.edu/ This is a searchable site, but if you use an RSS feed reader, you can also subscribe to the areas that interest you and receive those calls for papers automatically.
2. There are lots of RSS feed readers available, but a good one to start with is Google Reader: http://www.google.com/reader/. If you already have a Gmail account, log into your Gmail and you'll see a link for "Reader" at the top left. You can subscribe to any site that publishes an RSS feed by clicking on the little orange square. (For example, you could get the updates from our blog by clicking on the orange square.)
3. Although it wasn't mentioned in class, you can also subscribe to the RSS feed of tables of contents of journals in this way. A few possibilities are American Literature and American Literary History.
4. Here are some of the other sites with calls for papers:
- H-AMSTDY: http://www.h-net.org/~amstdy/
- American Literature Association (has information on author societies; most information is in .doc format): http://www.americanliterature.org . Deadlines for proposals for papers organized by societies are usually mid-December through mid-January.
- MLA. http://www.mla.org. The deadlines for MLA are usually around March 1-15.
- American Studies Association: http://www.theasa.net/. Panel proposals are due in mid- to late January.
