Dear colleagues,
I hope this message finds you well. The call for papers for the 2021 ISSA Graduate Paper Award is attached, and the same information – including eligibility criteria – is available on the ISSA website.
Please submit your paper or encourage your student to submit their paper to general....@issa1965.org by April 23, 2021, 4:30pm EDT. We hope you will consider submitting your paper if you are a graduate student or encourage your student to submit their work. Last year, the students of the top three papers were invited to build a virtual presentation of their paper and their videos (along with panel sessions for Virtual ISSA 2020) can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8wLJqFoCxgDF4kL-GqeI_Q. Enjoy!
ISSA Membership Renewal
ISSA memberships typically run to the end of the calendar year. If your membership for ISSA expired in December 2020, I warmly encourage you to renew your ISSA Membership for 2021. ISSA members receive a range of benefits as part of their membership including: print and online subscriptions to IRSS; the ISSA eBulletin; and, if possible amid the continued uncertainties of the COVID pandemic, reduced registration fees for an in-person ISSA World Congress (TBD).
Please use the online payment subscription process on the SAGE IRSS web page. It is efficient, secure, ensures that membership applications are processed in a timely fashion, and provides you with an automated reply that confirms your membership application
has been received. Please start here: http://www.uk.sagepub.com/journals/Journal200937
Membership category information appears halfway down the page. After you know which category you fall under, select the appropriate ‘buy now’ option. Please note that some members may have to click on the link ‘Change location’ appearing at the bottom of the page, to allow payment of subscription/membership fees through a mirror site.
Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
Stay well, Parissa

York University acknowledges its presence on the traditional territory of many Indigenous Nations. The area known as Tkaronto has been taken care of by the Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Wendat, and the Métis. It is now home to many Indigenous peoples. We acknowledge the current treaty holders and the Mississauga of the Credit First Nation. This territory is subject of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement to peaceably share and care for the Great Lakes region.
