Authors and editors are sought to produce books with new ideas, services, and technologies for managing libraries.

If interested please prepare a proposal for review by the LU editorial committee. This proposal should include a tentative title, up to one page describing the intent of the book and a current resume. Authors, for prefaces and forewords, and editors, for chapters, are encouraged to seek and recruit authors from other countries. If wishing consideration as chapter authors please send a topic and a current resume. For further information consult the web site click on Libraries Unlimited, scroll to “Become an Author”.
