Weave: The Journal of Library User Experience, is seeking library and UX experts to serve as peer reviewers. Peer reviewers should have strong writing skills, have experience with peer review (either as an author who has published peer-reviewed work or as a peer reviewer for a journal), and knowledge of and/or interest in user experience work. This is a two year commitment starting in the summer of 2018.
More information about Weave, including its editorial philosophy, is available on the journal’s website.
