Time to Get Writing - Australian Law Librarian Journal


Unfortunately, due to insufficient contributions, we have been forced to delay the publication of the journal till the new year. A combined Issue 4 2017 and Issue 1 2018 will be published in March next year.

Because it will be a combined issue the journal is seeking articles on two topics:


  • Professional development
    • Share your experiences on mentoring, being mentored and growing as a professional
  • Library, Information and The law
    • As library and information professionals, many of us spend our days researching the law, with this issue we take the time to reflect on the law. Share your thoughts on the latest developments in the law.

Contributions are needed by 20 January 2018. 

We also warmly welcome articles outside of these themes.

The journal is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to your field by sharing your knowledge and learning with the wider profession and I hope you will consider contributing.

Regards,

Alex Cato
