I propose a session looking at means of digital publication and distribution (such as iBooks Author), including challenges and opportunities for such tools in Appalachian Studies at-large.

I propose a session in discussion of the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in Appalachia-based humanities research, including but not limited to the pros and cons of specific tools (i.e. ArcGIS, KML layers, social media, browser-based SAS).
