Virginia Libraries Journal

Virginia Libraries is the academic publication of the Virginia Library Association, featuring insights and best practices from libraries in Virginia. The goals of the journal are to further research in all areas of library and information services, communicate best practices, and explore trends and issues of interest to the library profession. The journal seeks to publish content of interest to all types of libraries. Virginia Libraries has a strong interest in providing support for new authors to establish a voice in the library literature. The journal includes peer-review and non peer-review articles, and considers submissions that report on research studies or scholarly research (research articles - peer reviewed), describe innovative initiatives and effective practices (best practice articles - peer reviewed), examine a focused scenario in an applied context and with a training or educational purpose (case studies), or discuss trends or issues (essays / commentary). The journal also considers proposals for themed columns.

The journal is published online as a continuous volume and issue throughout the year. Articles are made available as soon as they are ready to ensure that there are no unnecessary delays in getting content publicly available.
