The Western Association of Women Historians (WAWH) will award $500 to
the best scholarly bibliographical and historical guide to research
focused on women or gender history. The Kanner Award is intended to
promote the practice of bibliomethodology or autobiography in historical
context. The bibliomethodology award should reflect the critical tools
of the historian's craft as have been developed to provide research
guides rather than library catalogues. The autobiography in historical
context award should reflect the craft of history as developed and
interpreted in individual lives.

Book-length submissions are preferred but substantial guides in other
forms(articles, book chapters, internet publications) may also be
considered. The bibliographical and autobiography awards will be given
on alternate years, with submissions for each award considered for
two-year intervals from the date of publication.

The 2005 award will be bibliographical and published in 2003 or 2004.
Entry deadline is January 15th, 2005. Entrants must be members of WAWH.

Please send three copies of a) your Kanner Prize application (found at
WAWH website) and b) your submission to the contact listed.
