Call for Submissions: Post-Tracks

Call for Submissions: Post-Tracks

Submission Deadline: July 22, 2005

Post-Tracks, an online peer-reviewed student publication hosted by http://Webjunction.org, is seeking articles for inclusion in its second issue scheduled for August 2005. This quarterly publication gives LIS students the opportunity to publish their work.

http://Webjunction.org is an online community where library staff meet to share ideas, solve problems, take online courses - and have fun. Post-Tracks is the latest development of the Faculty & Student Lounge, an open discussion forum focused on connecting persons taking or teaching a course in library and information science.

Please submit original manuscripts of 1,500-3,000 words. Current topics of particular interest include information literacy, services to special populations, and virtual reference. All articles will be considered for publication. Every paper submitted will be subject to blind review by LIS student reviewers.

Submissions should be sent as an email attachment in plain text format to the editor at junction@ischool.utexas.edu, and must be received prior to the July 22, 2005 deadline. Late submissions will be considered, but may not be reviewed in time for inclusion in this issue. The cover page of the manuscript should include the title, the author's name, the institution with which the author is affiliated, and the author's contact information. The author's name should not appear anywhere else in the document. References should follow APA Style (5th edition). Please include a brief abstract of 150 words or less with the manuscript.
