Publishing Opportunity for LIS Students [MLIS, Dual]

Public Services Quarterly’s column, Future Voices in Public Services is a forum for students in graduate library and information science programs to discuss key issues they see in academic library public services, to envision what they feel librarians in public service have to offer to academia, to tell us of their visions for the profession, or to tell us of research that is going on in library schools. We hope to provide fresh perspectives from those entering our field, in both the United States and other countries. Interested students of graduate library and information science programs, who would like to write an essay for this column, are invited to contact Nancy H. Dewald, Future Voices column editor, at nxd7@psu.edu. Please note that students must be  interested in ACADEMIC librarianship.

If you would like to see sample essays, please contact nxd7@psu.edu. We have had column contributors representing LIS programs in Australia, Scotland, British Columbia, Ontario, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Alabama, Washington state, Wisconsin, and Hawaii.
