International Journal of Librarianship

Aims & Scope

The International Journal of Librarianship (IJoL) is an open access, peer-reviewed journal of research and discussion dealing with all aspects of library, librarianship and information science, throughout the world. IJoL welcomes articles relating to academic, research, public, school and special libraries and other information institutes. It is published by Chinese American Librarians Association (CALA), an affiliation of the American Library Association. It is a peer-reviewed open access journal dedicated to publishing articles on as broad an array of topics as possible from all aspects of librarianship in all types of libraries. IJoL publishes original research papers, practical developments, reviews, and commentaries of value to professional practice in librarianship in general. It encourages scholarly and professional communication on librarianship within and among relevant professional and academic communities.

A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
