The Journal of Graduate Librarianship (JGL) is again accepting submissions! Manuscripts are welcome until Monday, April 14, 2025.
JGL invites manuscripts on any aspect or type of graduate librarianship. We especially seek manuscripts that exemplify the qualities contained in the acronym SHOP: Shared Honest Open Practice. Authors are encouraged to share their discoveries and/or experiences in a relatable way and are not required to refer to themselves in the third person.
Specifically, authors may submit their manuscripts to either of these two sections:
- Articles (peer reviewed): Scholarly articles about graduate librarianship that report on empirical research; present case studies; or engage deeply with theory, issues concerning professional practice, and existing scholarly literature.
- Sharing Our Stories (editor reviewed): Reports on personal experiences in graduate librarianship, including (but not limited to) reflections, initiatives, successes, surprises, limitations, lessons learned, epiphanies, and professional development.
Please carefully review JGL‘s submission guidelines for section details and expectations for manuscripts. When ready, click “Submit Article” on the JGL website (see link above) to begin the submission process. (Not sure if you can make the submission deadline of April 14, 2025? We will be open for submissions again in early 2026.)
