Poetry in New Media Project
Read a letter from Director Katharine Coles »
Project Statement
The Harriet Monroe Poetry Institute has invited a panel of poets, publishers, and experts from the fields of media law, technology, and other pertinent areas to come together both in person and virtually during 2009. The group will examine issues related to the preparation, distribution, and reception of poetry through existing and evolving new-media platforms, including the Internet and other electronic forms and devices, with the aim of forging “best practices” recommendations that both protect the intellectual property of poets and publishers and ensure a vigorous presence for poetry in various forms on new-media outlets.
