Libraries: Culture, History, and Society (Libraries)
Journal Descriptions
Libraries: Culture, History, and Society aims to study libraries within their broader historical, humanistic, and social contexts. In addition to Library Science, the journal welcomes contributors from History, English, Literary Studies, Sociology, Education, Gender/Women’s Studies, Race/Ethnic Studies, Political Science, Architecture, Anthropology, Philosophy, Geography, Economics, and other disciplines. The only journal in the United States devoted to library history, LCHS positions library history as its own field of scholarship, while promoting innovative cross-disciplinary research on libraries’ relationships with their unique environments. Libraries: Culture, History, and Society is the official peer-reviewed journal of the Library History Round Table of the American Library Association. Founded in 1947, LHRT is an inclusive and diverse organization that supports anyone who is interested in the history of libraries. It facilitates communication, provides thought-provoking programs, offers awards for outstanding research, and is active in issues, such as preservation, that concern all library historians. Attention LHRT Members: Members of LHRT receive a free subscription of LCHS with membership. To join, visit http://www.ala.org/membership/joinala. The Editorial Board of Libraries: Culture, History, and Society recently approved a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement and Action Plan. The plan can be found by clicking here.
