@fewstein This is such a good point! I always remind authors that even if you don't agree with the reviewer's specific objection, it's something they flagged (and thus other readers might also flag), so it's still wise to address it in some way (and better to know that before publication!)
Submit your #libraryjoy story TODAY to [email protected] to be featured in a special episode of the FYI podcast! We want to hear about the heartwarming, surprising, and joyful moments in your library!
@oliviastowell I worked with Shannon O'Sullivan on her monograph a few years back, and you might be interested in her work on masculinity/blue-collar work in reality TV!

@MichaelSocolow@Slate@ConversationUS There is of course always a balance to be struck. Accessible ≠ 'too' informal or that standards for the scholarship itself should be any lower. We should be rethinking which standards are actually indicative of academic rigor vs. grounded in historical tradition/elitism. (4/4)
@MichaelSocolow@Slate@ConversationUS I'm sure this also depends a lot on trends/standards in any given discipline, but I do feel lucky to acquire in comm/media and film/television where scholars (peer reviewers + our audience) tend to be pretty open-minded about innovative/more accessible approaches! (3/3)
Just published: @JordanChariton's exposé of the real story behind how the government poisoned a major American city—and how they are still getting away with it.
