The conference will address how access to book cultures is uneven on many different levels. Taking inspiration from recent work in critical bibliography (Maruca and Ozment\, 2022) and transnational print activism (Noorda\, Norrick-Rühl\, le Roux\, 2022) we are seeking papers that will interrogate how book cultures across time can and have been used to resist\, question\, or otherwise support or reinstate various systems of power and/or oppression. \nWe encourage contributions from all researchers. SHARP especially encourages submissions from independent scholars\, PhD students\, and Early Career scholars. We welcome papers and panels exploring book cultures and models of creation\, dissemination\, and consumption from across the world and in different eras.  \nPapers\, roundtables\, and posters linked to the following suggested themes and topics are invited (this list is not exhaustive): \n\nIntersectional Feminist approaches to book cultures \nAnti-racist approaches\nTextual production and class\nIndigenous studies and book history\nIntersections between disability studies and book culture \nWorld scripts and non-latin typefaces\nTransnational distribution\nTranslation: trends\, networks\, advocacy\nMultilingual publishing and bookselling\nBookmaking\, pedagogy\, and bibliography using archives and collections \nSocial justice\, global book cultures\, and publishing\nCritical and liberation bibliography \nSocial media and global book cultures \nGenre publishing\nSecret and surreptitious printing or circulation \nBooks beyond books \nStructures of knowledge; open access; copyright  \nCitation; co-creators; archives and institutions   \nMateriality of text and image (both analogue and digital)\nNew book consumption models; bookselling and book-buying networks\n\nReading’s renowned collections in book\, printing and publishing history\, and facilities and technical expertise to explore the making of type and printing processes\, will underpin our events. The University of Reading is home to The Archive of British Publishing and Printing\, Writers’ and Artists Papers\, Lettering\, Printing and Graphic Design Collections (includes Isotype\, non-latin typeface collection\, printing presses\, Ephemera\, C20 posters).  \nOn Monday and Friday of the conference\, in-person delegates will be able to explore our Special Collections and Archives on site\, with printing sessions/workshops in the Department of Typography and Graphic Communication\, pop-up exhibitions in Special Collections relating to book cultures and publishing\, and collections-based workshops led by Reading academics: \nCollections and archives – Department of Typography & Graphic Communication (reading.ac.uk) \nCollections – Special Collections – Collections – Special Collections (reading.ac.uk) \nFormat & Attendance  \nThe conference will primarily be in-person\, conducted during UK working hours\, with online presentation and attendance available for limited sessions only (not all). There will be some online-only sessions specifically for remote attendees. Keynote talks will be accessible for remote attendees to attend\, and will be made available after the conference via SHARP.
