3. Papers on Davis History Series

Up one level

The Publications Commitee of the DHS publishes original research on Davis History in its series "Papers on Davis History." Publication is electronic, meaning that each is a file in this folder. There are six papers in the series at this time. Details on the kinds of papers sought for the series and format aspects are provided in the editoral matter introducing each paper. The members of the commitee are Dennis Dingemans, Merrily Dupree, Lyn H. Lofland (Chair), and Tansey Thomas. If you would like to publish in the Series, contact the committee chair, Professor Lyn H. Lofland, at lhlofland@ucdavis.edu.
