Шаблон:About Шаблон:Third-party sources CALYX, Inc. is a non-profit publisher of art and literature by women founded in 1976 based in Corvallis, Oregon. CALYX publishes both CALYX, A Journal of Art and Literature by Women twice a year and CALYX Books, which publishes one to three books annually. CALYX is one of the nation's oldest feminist presses.
CALYX uses a collective model to make its editorial decisions. Several volunteer editors review and edit an author's work and often work with authors to improve their pieces. All manuscripts are read by a minimum of two editors. Manuscripts held for further consideration are read by all of the editors. CALYX Journal usually receives 1,000 submissions annually from women across the United States and internationally during their reading period, October 1-December 31.
Mission statement
The CALYX mission statement is to introduce a wide audience to high quality literature and art by women, provide a forum for diversity and underrepresented writers and viewpoints, discover and publish emerging and developing writers, and preserve publications for future audiences.
CALYX achieves its mission statement by publishing work which represents the voices of marginalized groups. In past books and journals, these groups have included women of color, queer women, young and old women, and women of diverse economic, religious, educational, and cultural backgrounds.
