The Employee - Images and Citations

Dear Dana,

How are your travels going - have you landed in LA yet? I hope you have had a bit of restful summer times, though I imagine it has been a whirlwind of activity.

I'm reaching out with two new details for you to keep in mind as you work on your text.

First, the excellent news that The Employee book has received a CCA grant we were counting on, and so we are moving full steam ahead with our designers House9, with the goal of publishing in early 2023.

This means that I can confirm that we will be able to include colour images illustrating each essay, and I am reaching out to ask if you would like to propose 3-5 images to accompany your text. Ideally these images would either be in the public domain or with a clear owner, to ease our rights & reproduction research and budget.

My second order of business is regarding citations. Art Metropole has confirmed that they prefer Chicago, so we will be adopting a simplified version of that: each essay will have endnotes for its citations (no in-line) and notes.

Thanks for your continued efforts on this essay, Dana, Josh and I are so excited to read it!

Warmly,

Lauren

Hi Lauren,

I made it to LA! The road trip was amazing but it's nice to finally stay in one place and start getting settled. And this is an exciting update! I'll start thinking about images and let you know—when would you need them by? Also happy to hear the book will be using Chicago, that's the style guide I'm most comfortable with by far.

More soon!

Hi Dana,

So glad to hear that you are safely installed on the West Coast!

It would be great if you could send a list of possible images when you send your first draft at the end of the month. As we move to the final draft, we can confirm the images, but this will allow us to get started right away with design and R&R. Let me know if that sounds feasible.

Great news about Chicago - its my preferred style too.

Warmly,
Lauren

Totally, that works!
