Society of Biblical Literature Affiliate Status

On September 11, 2009, the Society of Biblical Literature (SBL) granted "Bibliobloggers" affiliate status.[1] The SBL nonexclusively defined "Bibliobloggers" as "the over 300 people who blog about the Bible."

The first 'biblioblogger' section was held during the SBL's 2010 annual meeting, with Dr. Robert Cargill presiding. Drs. Jim Davila, Michael Barber, Christian Brady,[2] and James McGrath presented papers on the rise of biblioblogging and the need to consider online scholarship (or bloggership) as a legitimate means in conducting the critical studies of humanities.[3]
