Annual Meeting Program Unit Websites
Seminar Papers
In years past, a print edition of the SBL Seminar Papers was made available in advance of the Annual Meeting each year in order to stimulate discussion of these works in progress during the meeting itself. Beginning in 2004, however, the print edition was discontinued, with a selection of papers presented at the meeting being made available online. In addition, a number of papers from previous years have been archived on the SBL Web site. Because these papers represent works in progress, they should not be quoted or otherwise cited without permission from the author. If you wish to post your program unit's papers here, please contact Christopher Hooker .
Before you contact us, please note these guidelines for seminar paper:
- Papers must be provided as PDF documents.
- Each document must be named with the author's last name and the first two or three words of the paper title.
- No spaces may appear in the document title.
- We will not post documents that do not meet these specifications.
