Aims and scope

From 2017 this journal no longer accepts submissions. Please submit to Journal of the Australian Library and Information Association.

Australian Academic & Research Libraries is the premier research journal of the Australian Library and Information Association. It is a quarterly journal that publishes original, refereed research relevant to the researcher and practitioner communities. AARL is a forum for discussing significant issues of interest to librarianship and related information fields. The journal aims to showcase theoretical and practice-based research undertaken in, about, and relevant to, Australia and our broader region.  AARL invites contributions from authors world-wide, working across the full range of information professions, as well as those in the higher education sector and research libraries.
