Events at Harvard Book Store

In December 2003, Harvard Book Store once again joined the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard to cosponsor the Nieman Conference on Narrative Journalism.

As part of our involvement, we developed a bibliography of in-print books dealing with narrative journalism and other subjects addressed at the conference. This list was put together with suggestions from the Nieman Foundation staff, conference speakers, and staff of the Harvard Book Store.

To learn more about the Nieman Conference on Narrative Journalism and the Nieman Foundation Program on Narrative Journalism, visit www.nieman.harvard.edu.
