Call for papers - diversity in library technology



The Code4Lib Journal (C4LJ) exists to foster community and share information among those interested in the intersection of libraries, technology, and the future.

We are now accepting proposals for publication in our 28th issue, a special issue on diversity in library technology.

 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 could include, but are not limited to:

- Building diverse technology teams
- Implementing a code of conduct and/or assessing its efficacy
- Designing for accessibility
- Partnerships to foster inclusivity in the field
- Library tech programming for underserved populations
- Inclusive project management and communication
- Surfacing diverse items in digital libraries
- Digital projects involving outreach to diverse communities
