@Dr_Rehberg_Sedo and I have a new article published, on 'The Transnational Reception of Bestselling Books Between Canada and Australia.' We did a content analysis of 4000+ print media and online mentions of 6 recent books to analyse their reception journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/17…
And thanks to @hkpmcgregor for contribution via video: adorable and super interesting.
We may not be able to meet in person, in PDX, but we can still continue our conversations about transnational book cultures & national identity in the (borderless) digital space. We loved hearing about your work, @bethlrx @ActuallyAisha @LucyRyKottoh @Dr_Rehberg_Sedo @renxiangcn
@BookStudies_WWU @ad_astra_1 @FinkelsteinD @rachellynchase @Millicent_Weber @ILoveCopyright Thanks very much! We’re always keen to hear about new research in this area :)

Congrats to @rachellynchase, a brilliant author (and one-third of the @BorderXingBooks trio).
What is twenty-first century book studies? You can find an article about it by the brilliant @StevieLMarsden and me in the new issue of Book History! Thanks to all those who helped shape the article @bethlrx @sprowberry @Millicent_Weber @ILoveCopyright

#sharp19 headliners @ILoveCopyright, @Millicent_Weber & @rachellynchase with their v cool @BorderXingBooks research.
Are you interested in: how books are created and received transnationally; British, American, and Australian identities; photos of the beautiful Zadie Smith; project inspired zines? Then come to our 60 minute joint paper (3:45; ILC N111)! There will be memes aplenty. #sharp19
Enjoying bingo at #sharp19? Here's a sneak preview of the final lightning round. Join us in room N111 at 3:45. There will be prizes.
Two thirds of border-crossing books - @ILoveCopyright and @rachellynchase - as well as the excellent Alistair McCleery make up this wonderful panel on Scottish culture and cultural production. Some great interrogation of the rel’ship between print culture and nation at #sharp19
Cracking line up for the final panel of the day: Alistair McCleery and @rachellynchase chaired by @ILoveCopyright #SHARP19
Our book history is, most certainly, global #sharp19
