General Discussion, Questions, and Inquiries

• Do you know if there is something like the MLA Job Information List in Australia? I want to move there.
• Is anyone having problems (or not having them!) with using Interfolio to upload letters directly to online applications? It worked fine for me last year; but this year I have tried it with 4 different applications and haven't gotten any delivery requests to send the letters out on the Interfolio end of things.
• I would like to get some thoughts on including works "in progress" on your CV (i.e. articles/research you are working on but not yet submitted to a journal for review). If you do it, do you include everything you are working on or just the articles that are almost ready to submit (say, in two months or less). If you don't, what are your reasons not to? A1: I have a section for "Manuscripts in Preparation" under publications where I include several current projects. A2: For general research, as a rule, you might list works in progress as under review--you've submitted an article/manuscript but haven't heard back yet--or under revision--you've heard back and the reviewers have recommended "pursue with revision" or something similar. A decision to publish should then be listed as "forthcoming" even if minor revisions still need to be made. With regard to this specific question, particularly if you have not submitted yet, a "work under review" may generate positive feedback in an interview situation. With all the advertisments for "digital humanities" and/or "visual culture" positions, all fields that are still in their infancy, it will be nearly impossible for search committees to see through the fog of papers or manuscripts not-yet-accepted/under review/under revision as long as a candidate can legitimiately discuss a project that is underway and mature in its development.
