The NEH-funded Sounding Spirit initiative, a collaboration between the University of North Carolina Press and Emory's Center for Digital Scholarship, seeks proposals for digital and print editions of gospel songbooks or hymnals published between 1850 and 1925 representing Black or Native American sacred music making from prospective volume editors. Digital editions of Sounding Spirit will be produced using Readux, a new platform for reading, marking up, and publishing annotated facsimiles.

Please help spread the word about this opportunity to colleagues in your professional networks involved in music research. Send any questions to the Sounding Spirit managing editor, Meredith Doster, at mailto:mdoster@emory.edu.

We look forward to receiving a strong slate of proposals for this exciting series!
