    We are looking for an active scholar interested in anthropological linguistics to join our international editorial board on the Anthropology Review Database.

    ARD is an electronic resource, publishing reviews of the whole gamut of anthropological media and linking to items published in other fora.

    Review editors oversee the production of reviews to ensure quality and provide advice for the main project itself. They are also encouraged to develop our project in other ways, such as expanding our acquisitions.

    Please visit our Web site for more details about the project. I would be happy to discuss the (volunteer) position further.

    Thanks,

    Hugh Jarvis
