Academic Library Division Call for Papers
The Academic Library Division of the Georgia Library Association invites Georgia librarians and library science students to submit research papers pertaining to academic libraries for presentation at the 2024 Georgia Libraries Conference. Criteria for selection include purpose, content, organization, scholarship, and references. Papers should include research on developments in academic libraries that present challenging opportunities for libraries and librarianship throughout the state, region, or nation. Papers should be approximately 2000 – 6000 words.
The Georgia Library Quarterly (GLQ) may invite selected authors to submit their papers for possible publication in GLQ.
GLA may award complimentary Georgia Library conference registration and a cash prize for the paper selected as the top entry. Complimentary conference registration may be awarded to the runner-up entry. The two top papers will be presented at the Georgia Libraries Conference. If no paper is submitted or papers are not deemed scholarly, then ALD reserves the right to not present an award for the year.
DISCLAIMER: Papers may have multiple authors, but only one author may be awarded complimentary registration and the cash prize will be shared amongst all authors of the selected paper.
