It is concerned with both policy and practice. It accepts descriptive articles on particular national or major research libraries, or on the situation within a country or a region with regard to such matters as bibliographic networks, cooperative information provision, document delivery and national information planning. Discussion papers are also welcomed on national issues such as national retention and preservation policies, the promotion of national library services, and the response of national and major research. Alexandria would also welcome papers on issues such as digital curation, the management of digital collections and wider curatorial issues, including those affecting the archive and museum sectors.
