World Libraries is inviting submission of manuscripts for publication.  World Libraries is a peer-reviewed library and information science journal issued electronically twice a year by the Graduate School of Library and Information Science at Dominican University in River Forest, Illinois.  Since it was first published in 1990, World Libraries (formerly known as Third World Libraries) has been dedicated to encouraging scholarly communication and professional development in the field of library and information science focusing on socio-economic development in libraries worldwide.  

 

Formerly appearing in print, World Libraries entered a new era of free and open access by publishing on the World Wide Web in 2005.  It is an openly accessible journal, without registration, passwords or fees and can be found at:
