[SIGCIS-Members] Mahoney Prize reminder (deadline is April 15)

[Jeffrey Yost]

Dear Colleagues,

Just a reminder that the deadline to submit articles for consideration for
the 2017 Mahoney Prize is less than two months away--April 15, 2017.  Info
is pasted  below and is on the SIGCIS site. Any questions, please contact
me.  Nominations, of course, can be for your own scholarship or you can
nominate a fellow scholar's article for consideration.

Best, Jeff



The Mahoney Prize recognizes an outstanding article in the history of
computing and information technology, broadly conceived. The Mahoney Prize
commemorates the late Princeton scholar Michael S. Mahoney, whose profound
contributions to the history of computing came from his many articles and
book chapters. The prize consists of a $500 award and a certificate. For
the 2017 prize, articles published in the preceding three years (2014,
2015, and 2016) are eligible for nomination. The Mahoney Prize is awarded
by the Special Interest Group in Computers, Information, and Society
(SIGCIS) and is presented during the annual meeting of our parent group,
the Society for the History of Technology.

The deadline for submission for the 2017 Mahoney Prize is April 15, 2017.
To nominate an article, send an electronic copy to all three committee
members using the email address below. All questions should be directed to
the 2017 Mahoney Prize Committee Chair, Dr. Jeffrey Yost (yostx003 at umn.edu).
