Footnotes

This index, which incorporates all sessions scheduled for the 2025 MLA convention, is designed to help attendees locate sessions by subject. Most of the headings chosen for the index are the obvious ones, reflecting traditional topics of general interest, and have, in many instances, been suggested by the program organizers. While some of the sessions have been cross-referenced, the number and complexity of programs have made it impossible to provide all cross-references. Convention attendees are therefore advised to scan the entire index when attempting to locate a session.
