Call for papers


The June 2014 issue of the journal will be devoted to e-book research and practice. Two types of contributions are sought: scholarly research papers that explore any aspect of the e-book phenomenon, from authorship to readership; and reports on practice, illustrating the way libraries of all kinds are dealing with e-books in their daily work, or how publishers are responding to the phenomenon. The practice reports should be submitted under the category of Working Papers at the OJS site of the journal. The scholarly papers will be subject to the usual double-blind peer review, while the practice reports will undergo editorial review by members of the Editorial Board. Papers may be submitted at any time up to February 1, 2014, while Working Papers may be submitted up to 31 March, 2014
