To mark the Centennial of the Duke University Press, the DUP and the John Hope Franklin Humanities Institute (FHI) hosted two panel discussions on everything you need to know about publishing your humanities and social science book: from the process of turning a dissertation into a book to strategies for connecting with the best press for your book.

This panel, "Connecting with a Publisher and Understanding the Publishing Landscape," features Courtney Berger, Executive Editor of Duke University Press, Gisela Fosado, Editorial Director of Duke University Press, with moderator Sylvia Miller, founder of Arches Publishing in Chapel Hill, NC.
