Seeking Articles on Library Innovation

by on September 24, 2013

The January/February 2014 issue of Public Libraries will focus on public library innovation. We’re looking for feature articles and shorter opinion pieces on that subject. Take advantage of this opportunity to share your library’s innovative ideas and programming efforts with colleagues across the country. Your article can focus on any innovative idea, program, or library service.

Feature articles are generally 2500-5000 words and Verso columns (opinion pieces) are 1500 words. For this special issue, we will select three feature articles and two opinion pieces. Please submit by November 15 to be considered for the Innovation issue. All submissions will go through a peer-review process. More information about writing for PL can be found here http://www.ala.org/pla/publications/publiclibraries/writeforpl. Please submit articles via our article submission system (listed in the instructions). Send queries or requests for more information to PL Editor, Kathleen Hughes, khughes@ala.org.
