The Serials Librarian is currently seeking manuscripts on
a rolling basis for the 2013 volume year.
* Case studies reporting how libraries/consortia
acquire and manage content (in whatever format)
* Literature reviews tracing developments in
the field (e.g., the history of copyright and legislation devised to prevent
"piracy")
* Annotated bibliographies to aid collection
development decisions (e.g., a selected list of government serials useful in
urban studies)
* New models for library-publisher commerce
beyond "the big deal"
* Procedural innovations in processing or organizing
e-resources
* Reports on uses of tools such as ERM's,
discovery products, etc., including ideas related to staffing workflows
* Open access, whether "green",
"gold" or hybrid
* Peer review and the future of the journal
gatekeeping function
* Studies of end-user ease of access
* Theoretical or speculative pieces addressing
issues within the scope of the journal (e.g., does RDA adequately adjudicate
concerns about serials title changes? )
Please note that we are also interested in finding
interesting content for our existing set of columns and that proposals for an
entirely new column are welcome.
All manuscripts should be submitted electronically to the
journal's ScholarOne website: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/WSER
Questions or other requests can be sent to the journal's
editors, Louise Cole and Andrew Shroyer, at: editorserialslib@gmail.com >
