and other discussions (non-refereed)

A peer-reviewed electronic journal
LIBRES is a quarterly, peer-reviewed electronic journal with
an editorial board of library and information science
scholars. LIBRES communicates scholarly thought on library
and information science.
Since 1990, LIBRES has published non-refereed articles,
reports, and drafts as well as news and discussion of library
and information science research, applications, and events.
The first regular, quarterly issue which includes the peer-
reviewed sections will be on Oct. 15, 1993. When warranted
by the volume and flow of scholarship, special and/or
supplementary issues on emergent themes will be distributed.
LIBRES will be distributed through a listserv fileserver, an
ftp site and a gopher server. Subscribers will be made aware
of the available issue by distribution of a quarterly table
of contents to LIBRES, LIBREF-L, and other e-conferences that
request the service. LIBRES will be indexed in ERIC RIE.
