<p class="MsoNormal">It’s that time of year – Award nomination season is here and with that are plenty of requests for nomination and supporting letters. Equitable Letters for Space Physics (ELSP) is here to help! ELSP encourages merit-based recommendations
and nominations in the space and physics community by providing resources for letter writing and reviews of recommendation and nomination letters. ELSP seeks to achieve this goal by:<br>
<br>
1) Providing resources for people writing letters of recommendation and award nomination at the undergraduate level and above,<br>
2) Provide resources for people wishing to learn about different implicit biases and lessen their manifestation, and<br>
3) Provide reviews of recommendation and nomination letters, with the goal of lessening implicit bias in these letters.<br>
<br>
At the moment, we are accepting letters to review in the letter submission system. This system functions similarly to double-blind journal article reviews, with the ELSP executive director acting as editor. If you have more questions or would like to participate,
please contact us at: equitable.space.letters(at)gmail.com or visit our submission guideline site
<a href="https://equitableletterssp.github.io/ELSP/elspSubmissionGuidelines.html">
https://equitableletterssp.github.io/ELSP/elspSubmissionGuidelines.html</a>.<br>
<br>
You can also learn more about our mission and find both letter writing and implicit bias resources at the ELSP website: <a href="https://equitableletterssp.github.io/ELSP/" title="https://equitableletterssp.github.io/ELSP/">https://equitableletterssp.github.io/ELSP/</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
