Click the "edit" link next to the month in which you want to add an event and follow the format of the other entries to make additions.


To help with sorting post-wiki, the format of each post is subject (book, conference, faculty), name (person responsible for event, book, etc) and then the substance of the post. This is not the final format for the timeline - it is just in this form now as we're collecting the info, and we'll be dolling it up later! Thanks!
