NER gratefully acknowledges its 2011 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) for helping the magazine enhance its web content and design through this site. The new site represents more than a design upgrade and a technological improvement through its use of RSS-enabled posts and other content-sharing features. (NER would like to thank Middlebury College’s Curricular Technologist, Alex Chapin, for his technological assistance and advice in building this site.) In this space, NER will be posting regular links to new poetry, fiction, and nonfiction from NER’s current issue and classic works from previous issues, as well as recommending links to features from other literary web sites. NER Digital, a forthcoming feature, is planned to showcase original and innovative writing for the web. Our new Audio Highlights section will feature readings from the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference, which, like NER, makes its home at Middlebury College. NER is part of a vibrant community of arts and humanities at Middlebury, which has provided critical and generous support for the magazine since 1987.
If you are a NER contributor with good news to share, an NER author who would like to contribute original writing to NER Digital, an editor at a literary site with a link to an intriguing project, or a member of an organization or department at Middlebury that would like to share web content related to literature, arts, or digital culture, please contact web editor J. M. Tyree.
