CFP: Code4Lib Journal (C4LJ)
The Code4Lib Journal (C4LJ) exists to foster community and share information among those interested in the intersection of libraries, technology, and the future.
The Code4Lib Journal is now accepting proposals for publication in its 7th issue. Don't miss out on this opportunity to share your ideas and experiences. To be included in the 7th issue, which is scheduled for publication in late June 2009, please submit articles, abstracts, or proposals to c4lj-articles@googlegroups.com by Friday, March 20, 2009. When submitting, please include the title or subject of the proposal in the subject line of the email message.
C4LJ encourages creativity and flexibility, and the editors welcome submissions across a broad variety of topics that support the mission of the journal. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
* Practical applications of library technology (both actual and hypothetical)
* Technology projects (failed, successful, proposed, or in-progress), including how they were done and challenges faced
* Case studies
* Best practices
* Reviews
* Comparisons of third party software or libraries
* Analyses of library metadata for use with technology
* Project management and communication within the library environment
* Assessment and user studies
C4LJ strives to promote professional communication by minimizing the barriers to publication. While articles should be of a high quality, they need not follow any formal structure. Writers should aim for the middle ground between blog posts and articles in traditional refereed
journals. Where appropriate, we encourage authors to submit code samples, algorithms, and pseudo-code. For more information, visit C4LJ's Article Guidelines or browse articles from the first 5 issues published on our website: http://journal.code4lib.org.
Remember, for consideration for the 7th issue, please send proposals, abstracts, or draft articles to c4lj-articles@googlegroups.com no later than Friday, March 20, 2009.

CFP: Code4lib journal
CFP: code4lib journal
Consider submitting proposals for articles, book & software reviews, code snippets
& algorithms, conference reports, opinion pieces, etc. to Code4Lib Journal. See:
http://journal.code4lib.org/
Code4Lib Journal strives to fill a communication niche above simple description of
software implementations but below pure theoretical digital library investigation. The
editorial board is looking for content that is practical, demonstrates how to exploit
technology to create digital library collections and services, or offers insight and forethought
regarding the use of computers in any type of library setting. While articles in the journal
should be of a high quality, they need not follow any formal structure or guidelines.
Writers should aim for the middle ground between, on the one hand, blog or mailing-list
posts, and, on the other hand, articles in traditional journals. We want publishing in the
journal to be easy and painless, helping the community to share timely, relevant information
that is currently shared all too rarely.
The inaugural issue of Code4Lib Journal is well underway and set for publication in
December. The second issue is not quite full. The due date for proposals is Friday,
November 9, 2007 with a publication date in late March, 2008. The Journal welcomes
submissions at any time on a rolling acceptance basis, but this is the deadline to be sure
to make the 2nd issue.
Send in a submission. Your peers would like to hear what you are doing.
