CALL FOR PAPERS

Information for Social Change is an activist organisation that examines issues of censorship, freedom and ethics amongst library and information workers. It is committed to promoting alternatives to the dominant paradigms of library and information work and publishes its own journal, Information for Social Change.

We welcome contributions in our field. Read the journal to gauge our interests. If you're in doubt, write to us with suggestions (email: isc-journallibr.org). Also see themes/ details of forthcoming issues.

Whilst encouraging rigorous debate, the journal exists primarily for workers and practitioners, so simple and clear English is preferable. Articles should, where possible, be between 500 and 2500 words. This is to ensure a wide coverage of topics in each issue. However, longer articles may be excerpted in the journal and the full text made available from the author(s), if you wish.

As well as articles we are also interested in shorter pieces (including letters, review articles) and poems.

We publish twice per year.
