LIBRES, an electronic, peer-reviewed, international scholarly journal
devoted to Library and Information Science Research, is pleased to announce
a call for papers for its next and forthcoming issues.

LIBRES is a peer-reviewed electronic journal with an editorial board of
library and information science scholars. LIBRES communicates scholarly
thought in library and information science. Its publication language is
English.  It is published in March and September.

Since 1990, LIBRES has also published non-refereed articles, reports, as
well as news and discussion of library and information science research,
applications, and events.  It commenced its peer-reviewed section in 1993.
When warranted by the volume and flow of scholarship, special and/or
supplementary issues on emergent themes will be distributed.

LIBRES has four sections:

1. Research and applications (refereed).  Peer-reviewed scholarly articles
from multiple    sub-disciplines of library and information science on such
topics as analysis, evaluation, applications (reports of progress) in
libraries, plus other information science research.
    Editor: Scott Seaman
    (email: seaman at spot.colorado.edu)

2. Essays and opinions (non-refereed)
    Editor: Ann Curry
    (email: ann.curry at ubc.ca)

3. Reviews of print and electronic resources
    and other discussions (non-refereed)
    Editor: Suzanne Milton
    (email: smilton at ewu.edu)

4. News and Meetings
    Editor: Kerry Smith
    (email:  K.Smith at curtin.edu.au)


LIBRES is based on the principle of subscription to an electronic discussion
list, the members of which, when informed of issue information, retrieve
articles by email. An archive is also maintained.

With the rise of the Web and its potential for 'rich' content, the editors
particularly encourage the use of web-based technology in the presentation
of articles.

News on upcoming international conferences is now entirely web based due to
the need to continually update the information. This information can be
found at.
