[Libs-Or] Would you like to write for the OLA Quarterly?

[Charles Wood]

Hi!  Would you like to write for the OLA Quarterly? The OLA Quarterly is an
official publication of the Oregon Library Association and is indexed by
library science related databases. It is a professional journal that
showcases the work of authors who work in Oregon Libraries.  If you write
for the OLA Quarterly, you will be a published writer!

UX in Oregon Libraries

The fall issue of OLA Quarterly is dedicated to exploring user experience
practices in Oregon libraries. By user experience, we mean looking at the
whole of a user's experience with a library as well as the human-computer
interaction. What are you doing in your library to enhance the user's
experience? What tools is your library using or experimenting with? How do
you assess the user experience? What has worked and what hasn't worked?
This issue is about the state of user experience in Oregon libraries.

The fall issue guest editor is Joe Marquez. He is the Web Services
librarian at the Reed College Library.

If you are interested in writing for OLA-Q, please submit your ideas (title
and a brief description) via email to the guest editor for review. The
guest editor will review submissions and respond to all authors in a timely
manner.

He can be reached at jmarquez at reed.edu. Please add "OLA-Q" in the subject
line of your email.

Deadlines: all ideas for articles are due by August 22nd. If your idea is
selected, final drafts of articles will be required by October 15. The fall
issue will be out on November 15.

The article length averages 1,000 to 2,500 words. OLAQ authors retain the
rights to their articles, and some have gone on to publish in magazines
such as American Libraries.
