Journal call for papers from Library Hi Tech News
Library Hi Tech News (LHTN), is actively seeking
submissions.
LHTN is an established (1984+) print and online monthly
journal that quickly publishes articles of interest to our international
readership. The journal’s major focus is on developments in library technology.
Although not formally peer reviewed, LHTN is indexed in Library and Information
Science Abstracts (LISA), Library, Information Science and Technology Abstracts
(LISTA), Scopus, INSPEC, Current Index to Journals in Education and others.
Published by Emerald Publishing Group, LHTN is interested
in articles of varying lengths, reports from relevant conferences, and case
studies of library use of technology. The editors will work with authors that
are new to LIS publishing, and those who are seeking outlets for reporting on
practical uses of IT in libraries. Publishing your article in LHTN can be “a
place to start,” analogous to a “poster session in print” and does not preclude
publishing a more fulsome piece in a peer-reviewed journal at a later date.
Readers consider LHTN the source to hear what’s coming next in terms of
technology development for academic and public libraries.
