Call for Submissions

The Student Research Journal (SRJ) Editorial Team at San Jose State University School of Library and Information Science invites submissions from current graduate students from all disciplines and institutions for the Fall 2011 issue.

This is a wonderful opportunity for graduate students, especially LIS students, to showcase their work in the fields of library and information science, archives and records management, and museum studies. Submissions to be considered for publication can be an original research paper or a critical review or essay covering topics in information science theory, policy, application, or practice.

Authors may create an account from the SRJ site and upload their work directly into our review system. All submissions received will be acknowledged by the journal Editor-in-Chief. The deadline for submissions to be considered for the Fall issue is September 16, 2011.

On behalf of the SRJ Editorial Team, I welcome graduate students to participate in this exciting strategic initiative of the School of Library and Information Science at San Jose State University, and to collaboratively build an evidence-based publication representing the breadth of knowledge and innovation of our LIS community.
