Call for Articles-Library Hi Tech News (LHTN)

Library Hi Tech News (LHTN) is a non-refereed publication which comes out ten times/year, so articles submitted can be published fairly quickly. In some cases your report on an innovative use of technology can later be submitted as a research paper in one of Emerald’s peer-reviewed journals such as ‘Reference Services Review’, ‘Library Hi Tech’ and others. So, you might think of your article as being a “poster sessions in print” and a way to get your information/ideas out to a wide international readership. Some Article Ideas of Interest:
