CFP: Ticker: The Academic Business Librarianship Review (#OpenAccess #BusinessLibrarianship)

Ticker: The Academic Business Librarianship Review is seeking peer-reviewed articles for our bi-annual journal in Volume 11, Issue 1, to be published in the Summer of 2026. This is a great opportunity for librarians interested in researching any and all areas related to business librarianship. Ticker is an open-access journal committed to promoting the widest possible discussion of original and translational research, evidence-based pieces, case studies, and more.  We especially encourage submissions from early-career librarians.  Ticker offers the opportunity to publish in either of our peer-reviewed or editorial-reviewed collections of articles.
