ICTM Seeks Film/Video Reviews Editor for the Yearbook for Traditional 
Music

The Yearbook for Traditional Music requires a Film/Video Reviews Editor to replace Lisa Urkevich, who will be stepping down from this position at the end of 2013. The Film/Video Reviews Editor is responsible for soliciting, coordinating, and editing up to five reviews of film or video publications for each Yearbook, totalling c. 2500 words. Reviews are then sent on to the General Editor by a specified deadline. The Film/Video Reviews Editor would then assist in liaising with the reviewers to resolve any queries regarding the reviews in their preparation for publication.

An applicant for the Film/Video Reviews Editor position should be an ICTM member in good standing, and have a demonstrated interest and involvement with ethnomusicological films and videos. Experience in editing would also be an advantage. Institutional support is important for possible postal, email, fax, and telephone expenses.

Anyone interested in undertaking this important service to the membership should send an application to the General Editor (dniles.ipngs@gmail.com)  by 1 January 2013.
