Business & Finance Bulletin
For five decades, the Bulletin has been an important communication tool and source for the members of the Business & Finance Division of SLA. The Bulletin conveys information about Division and member activities. It also has developed a reputation for publishing informative and practical articles on the many topics that are of interest to a specially skilled and influential, worldwide readership that currently stands at approximately 2,000 information professionals. The Bulletin is indexed in Library and Information Science Abstracts (LISA), Library Literature, and Information Science Abstracts.
The Bulletin offers a peer-review option to article authors while also providing publishing opportunities to those who do not choose this option. The peer-review process is double-blind and draws upon a pool of reviewers offering a broad range of expertise. The peer-review option is available for articles on all relevant topics, including those to appear in the Bulletin's regularly featured columns.
Article size can vary as appropriate for topics, and authors should refer to recent issues of the Bulletin for general guidance on style. These many options offer a high degree of freedom and opportunity to authors.
Copy deadlines for forthcoming issues are as follows:
Fall 2008 issue: August 1, 2008
Winter 2008 issue: December 1, 2008
Peer-reviewed articles require additional time for the review process. Authors who wish to publish a peer-reviewed article should submit the manuscript at least six to eight weeks prior to these deadlines.
We invite you to submit manuscripts and to contact the editor for additional information:
