You received an academic newsletter in your mailbox, or more likely, your inbox. Opening it and skimming its contents is a ritual you might take for granted, but you might not realize all the work that goes into creating this form of scholarly communication. Leah Valtin-Erwin pulls back the curtain.
As May draws to a close following a holiday weekend, we bring you the monthly #FeedingTheElephant roundup, complete with book recommendations, must read articles, and a great podcast suggestion!

Summer "break" is upon us or will be soon. Let's be honest though. Most #FeedingTheElephant readers will use the summer to tackle professional projects.
The FtE Summer Project Syllabus rounds up great posts from the last 3 years to help you tackle your existing projects and brainstorm new ones!
Thank you for the shout-out FTE! V honored to be responsible for the first citation of FTE in a peer-reviewed pub. 🥰 I have learned so much about UPs, publishing, and scholarly communications more broadly from FTE—a freely available resource btw!

Get the stopwatch out! Today's #FeedingTheElephant post by @greatfartsoflit.bsky.social includes a timed activity to illustrate her point that departing from nonarbitrary style points in citations can affect both the functionality and the usefulness of the scholarship you produce.
Seriously, pitch us your ideas! @greatfartsoflit.bsky.social endorses it!
Our roundup also includes links to all our posts from April:
➡️ Michael Gifford on AI in the classroom (networks.h-net.org/group/discus...)
