Call for Papers
The editorial team of the Journal of Library Outreach and Engagement (JLOE) would like to invite authors to submit papers for our inaugural issue, forthcoming in the fall of 2020. JLOE provides a platform to disseminate original research that examines public and community engagement initiatives and stimulates a forum to discuss the methodological and epistemological issues that inform, or emerge from, such projects and programs.
At JLOE, we define outreach as work done on behalf of libraries, information organizations, cultural memory institutions, and archives, using a wide variety of planned methods to facilitate library use, encourage lifelong learning, or develop relationships with community partners. Methods to achieve these results may include, but are not limited to, marketing strategies. Engagement consists of programs and activities that draw on our professional expertise to enhance societal good, through local and global collaborations with individuals, communities, and organizations.
Types of articles or editorials may include original research, case studies, or comparable material. Authors and their submissions represent libraries of all types, including academic, public, school, and special libraries and archives.
To be considered for publication in the inaugural issue, submit your manuscript by May 1st. As per the author guidelines, earlier submissions are appreciated. We will communicate individually with each author about their manuscript’s progression through the peer review process. We expect all final decisions for the inaugural issue to be communicated to authors by August 31st. Copy editing will take place in September 2020.
We accept manuscripts on a rolling basis so we warmly invite paper submissions after May 1st for inclusion in future issues of JLOE.
To submit a manuscript, please go to our website [ Information For Authors | Journal of Library Outreach and Engagement ] and follow the provided instructions for authors.
Questions about the timeline and editorial process may be directed to jloe-editors@illinois.edu .
