    Dear colleagues,

    The Journal of Graduate Librarianship (JGL) is pleased to share a few end-of-year announcements:

    Peer-Reviewed Articles

    Sharing Our Stories

    Book Review

     

    Submissions for 2026 Now Welcome: JGL is again accepting submissions! Manuscripts are welcome through April 1, 2026. We invite manuscripts on any aspect or type of graduate librarianship, and especially seek manuscripts that exemplify the qualities contained in the acronym SHOP: Shared Honest Open Practice. Specifically, authors may submit their manuscripts to either of these two sections: 

    • Articles (peer reviewed): Scholarly articles about graduate librarianship that report on empirical research; present case studies; or engage deeply with theory, issues concerning professional practice, and/or existing scholarly literature. 
    • Sharing Our Stories (editor reviewed): Reports on personal experiences in graduate librarianship, including (but not limited to) reflections, initiatives, successes, surprises, limitations, lessons learned, epiphanies, and professional development.

    Please carefully review JGL's submission guidelines for details. When ready, click "Submit Article" on the JGL website to begin the submission process. (Not sure if you can make the submission deadline of April 1, 2026? We will be open for submissions again in December 2026.)

    Stay Tuned for More Announcements: We'll soon share information about JGL book recommendations and applying to be a JGL peer reviewer and/or editorial board member.

    Looking forward to working with some of you in 2026!

    Wendy Doucette, Editor-in-Chief
