CASDW Annual Research Award – Call for Nominations
CASDW invites nominations for its annual research award—an award given to the author(s) of the best journal article or book chapter (single- or co-authored) published by a CASDW member during the 2014 calendar year. Multi-authored articles or chapters will be eligible as long as one of the authors is a CASDW member. The deadline for nominations is April 3, 2015. The winner of the award will be announced at the 2015 CASDW conference.
The selection criteria are as follows:
• Potential significance to the field, including the significance of the question or problem studied and the
degree to which important new knowledge is presented.
• General quality of the writing and comprehensibility.
• Originality.
• Depth of the research.
The award includes a prize of $100 and a one-year free CASDW membership for the following year.
Nominations for journal articles must include a live link to the article, as well as a complete reference.
Nominations for book chapters must include a pdf of the chapter, as well as a complete reference.
Authors are invited to nominate their own publications as well as those of other CASDW members.

The members of the selection committee are Sarah Banting (sbanting@mtroyal.ca), Margie Clow Bohan (C.Bohan@Dal.Ca), and Graham Smart (gsmart@connect.carleton.ca).
