which is published three times a year by the Library Information Research
Group (LIRG, a special interest group of CILIP).
(The LIRG aims to raise awareness of information research by increasing its
profile and influencing its direction, promoting the dissemination of sound
research methodology and results, assisting in the development of emerging
researchers and enabling networking between researchers. It is circulated
mainly to institutions offering qualifications in librarianship and
information studies, library and information staff in the academic and
public library sector and library and information professionals with
research interests.)
Please respond to me at [log in to unmask] stating why you're interested
in reviewing your chosen title.
