Code4Lib
Journal:
Call
for
Submissions
Consider
submitting
proposals
for
articles,
book
&
software
reviews,
code
snippets
&
algorithms,
conference
reports,
opinion
pieces,
etc.
to
Code4Lib
Journal.
Code4Lib
Journal
strives
to
fill
a
communication
niche
above
simple
description
of
software
implementations
but
below
pure
theoretical
digital
library
investigation.
The
editorial
board
is
looking
for
content
that
is
practical,
demonstrates
how
to
exploit
technology
to
create
digital
library
collections
and
services,
or
offers
insight
and
forethought
regarding
the
use
of
computers
in
any
type
of
library
setting.
While
articles
in
the
journal
should
be
of
a
high
quality,
they
need
not
follow
any
formal
structure
or
guidelines.
Writers
should
aim
for
the
middle
ground
between,
on
the
one
hand,
blog
or
mailing-list
posts,
and,
on
the
other
hand,
articles
in
traditional
journals.
We
want
publishing
in
the
journal
to
be
easy
and
painless,
helping
the
community
to
share
timely,
relevant
information
that
is
currently
shared
all
too
rarely.
The
first
issue
of
the
Code4Lib
Journal
was
published
in
December
2007
and
is
available
at
http://journal.code4lib.org/issues/issue1.
The
second
issue
of
Code4Lib
Journal
is
well
underway
and
set
for
publication
in
March.
The
third
issue
is
not
quite
full.
The
Journal
welcomes
submissions
at
any
time
on
a
rolling
acceptance
basis.
Proposals
received
by
Friday,
March
14,
2008
will
receive
consideration
for
publication
in
late
June
2008.
Upon
provisional
acceptance,
authors
will
be
given
an
article
deadline,
typically
6-8
weeks
before
journal
publication.
Send
in
a
submission.
Your
peers
would
like
to
hear
what
you
are
doing.
Submission
of
articles
proposals
and
articles
should
be
submitted
electronically
to
c4lj-articles_at_googlegroups.com
(a
private
list
read
only
by
C4LJ
editors)
in
a
format
likely
to
be
widely
readable.
The
article
should
be
accompanied
by
some
brief
author
metadata
and,
if
appropriate,
disclosure
statement
(see
below).
We
have
no
more
precise
specs
at
this
time,
but
may
develop
some
at
a
later
date,
and
reserve
the
right
to
ask
for
submission
in
a
different
format
if
we
have
trouble
with
yours.
Authors
are
welcome
to
contact
the
Editorial
Committee
(http://journal.code4lib.org/editorial-committee)
with
a
proposal,
rather
than
a
complete
article.
For
more
information,
see
our
Article
Guidelines
(http://journal.code4lib.org/article-guidelines/)
and
the
Journal's
Process
and
Structure
