Are you (dear reader) looking for an opportunity to be published?
If so, the Journal of Library Metadata (JLM), a peer-reviewed journal publishing articles on all aspects of metadata applications in libraries, is looking for articles that fall into one of the following three categories:
- Peer-reviewed articles (original research, scholarly manuscripts), which should be 10-50 typed pages, double-spaced.
- Short, scholarly, non-peer-reviewed articles, often practical in nature (for example, describing a particular library metadata implementation). These should range from 500-2,000 words, with limited citations to other resources.
- Upbeat “Viewpoint” articles giving the author’s opinion on a timely topic related to library metadata applications. These should range from 500-2,000 words and may or may not contain citations. Focus should be on improvements or solutions instead of negative aspects of an existing system, standard, or service.
For more information about the journal, please see my earlier blog post.
