I am seeking contributors for a two-volume project:

Censorship: An Encyclopedia, to be published by Fitzroy Dearborn Publishers in 1998.

I am particularly interested in finding authors for entries on the top priority topics listed below. If you would like more information about this project, including a full list of unassigned entries and some sample entries, please email me at fitzroy.dearborn@virgin.net, placing the word "followup" on the subject line, and including your postal address, phone/fax numbers, etc. Otherwise please email me direct on Derek.jones3@virgin.net.

If you know of any organization, person, or list that may be interested in the project, I would be most grateful if you could forward this email to them on my behalf. Likewise, if you have any comments, recommendations or observations about the project I would be very pleased to hear from you. With many thanks,
