The American Library Association’s Social Responsibilities Round Table (SRRT) Editorial Board is looking for submissions for the September issue of its newsletter. The theme is “Library Work in Challenging Times: Lessons Learned”.
What have been the greatest challenges in meeting the needs of your library community in the last year and a half? What have you learned that will continue to inform your library work? What social justice issues have been highlighted or have emerged and how have you addressed them?
The SRRT Newsletter invites submissions from library and information workers, students, educators, and all others who recognize the critical importance of libraries in addressing community and social issues. Please send your submissions electronically in one of the following formats: MS Word, RTF, PDF, or plain text pasted into the body of an email. Submissions should be 500 to 1,000 words. Graphics are encouraged. If using images that are already on the Internet, the URL of the image and a caption or description may be added to the text of the submission.
Please e-mail original submissions to SRRT Newsletter co-editors Julie Winkelstein (at jwinkels@utk.edu) and Doreen Dixon (at nouvelle_19@yahoo.com), indicating “SRRT Newsletter” within the subject line of your e-mail. A confirmation of receipt will be sent in a timely manner.
The next submission deadline is Monday, August 30.
