Call for Book Chapters

To mark the 40th anniversary of the IFLA Section on Education and Training  proposals for book chapters of no more than 1,500 words are invited. Finished chapters will be between 5,000 and 10,000 words.  The deadline for proposals is 24 January 2014. Proposals should focus on library and information science education and training (not libraries per se).
Proposals may take a local, national or regional perspective.

• Historical proposals are preferred and they should explain the social and cultural context of the institutions being described. Authors are encouraged to include future plans and perspectives as well as information about the past.
• Proposals may be in any of the official IFLA languages, but German, French, Spanish and English are preferred. The language of the final text will likely be in English, depending on publisher requirements.
• Some authors may be invited to present at the off-site session on August 18, 2014 of the 2015 IFLA Conference in Lyon.
• Proposals should be sent to seadle@hu-berlin.de.
