The ACRL College Libraries Section’s College Library Information on Policy and Practice (CLIPP) Committee invites you to submit a preliminary proposal for its CLIPP publication series. The CLIPP series allows library staff to share information on practices and procedures they have implemented to address common issues or concerns. Each CLIPP follows a set structure of three parts–literature review, survey results, and sample documents–and should both describe library best practices and provide useful, specific examples that libraries can refer to when developing similar policies and procedures of their own. Recent books published in the series include Academic Librarian Faculty Status: CLIPP #47, Academic Library Job Descriptions: CLIPP #46, Open Educational Resources: CLIPP #45, and Institutional Repositories: CLIPP #44.
Author instructions and more information about the CLIPP program, along with the proposal and publication process, are available on the ACRL website. The submission deadline for this round of proposals is 7:00 PM CDT on Wednesday, February 1, 2023.
