Call for Papers
(Note this is an ongoing call, we publish issues in January and June of each year.)
Women in Libraries, the publication of the American Library Association’s Feminist Task Force accepts articles, interviews, creative works, bibliographies, webographies and other resource lists as well as reviews of books and media for publication. Materials submitted should be of interest to the feminist library community.
