Call for Papers: Space, Literacies and Culture

There is a call for papers for the Centre for the Study of Literacies' 6th Annual Conference at The University of Sheffield, 27-28- June 2014. The title is Space, Literacies and Culture
"We are interested in papers that make sense of everyday literacies and communicative practices linking to questions connected with space, place and culture. We are hoping to attract papers that explore new methodologies and crossdisciplinary approaches that are about understanding the uses of literacy in all its forms. We value critical and emancipatory research, as well as participatory approaches. We welcome papers from established and new scholars from the fields of literacy and language in all their forms." The deadline for proposals 28 March 2014. More information at http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/education/research/groups/csnl/space-literacies-culture
