Faculty and staff are encouraged to submit works to be added to the UWM Authors Collection in the Golda Meir Library. Established in 1973, the UWM Authors Collection documents the research productivity and creativity of UWM faculty and staff.
UWM authors who have written, edited, translated or illustrated a print book; composed music for a published score or recording; or had a primary role in creating a commercially distributed film or video since the last UWM Authors Recognition Ceremony in March 2025 should complete the UWM Authors Collection submission form by the end of the day Friday, March 20.
The collection will gladly accept donated copies of your publications. Donations may be delivered directly to Special Collections on the fourth floor of the Golda Meir Library. Please remember to fill out the submission form.
For the full list of eligibility criteria, review the collection development guidelines for the UWM Authors Collection.
Beginning in 2026, the Golda Meir Library will honor UWM authors by assembling a spring exhibit of recent publications in the Learning Commons. This exhibit replaces the biennial UWM Authors Program, which has been discontinued.
