The Special Issues Task Force for 2009/10 produced three reports for comment:

This report (PDF) includes some recommendations that, if approved by Section Council, will be implemented for the 2011 MLA meeting. The floor is now open for discussion until 1/15/10.  Please give the Task Force your feedback.  Task Force members are: Ysabel Bertolucci, Julie Esparza, and Rikke Ogawa.
