> In recent years, researchers and practitioners in the information and 
> communication disciplineshave begun to recognize forms of knowledge 
> that go beyond the textual. Concomitantly, new approaches and 
> methodologies to pedagogy have emerged, such as embodied, 
> arts-informed, design thinking, practice-led, experience-based and 
> productive teaching and learning. As such, there is an opportunity to 
> continue incorporating these developments into education for the 
> information professions.Building on the 2016 special issue of 
> /Education for Information/ on innovative pedagogies in LIS (volume 
> 32, issue 1), we invite broad-ranging considerations of questions 
> around educating future information professionals beyond the use of 
> texts. With this in mind, /Education for Information/ is seeking 
> articles for a special issue on Non-Textual Pedagogies to be published 
> in fall/winter 2018.

> We welcome both conceptual and empirical papers (approximately 6,000 
> words) as well as shorter discussions of pedagogical innovations and 
> applied practice (approximately 1,500 words). Submissions should be 
> original works not previously published nor undergoing review for 
> publication in another journal at the time of submission.

>     more)
