Journal of the Medical Library Association : JMLA
The Journal of the Medical Library Association (JMLA) is an international, peer-reviewed journal that aims to advance the practice and research knowledgebase of health sciences librarianship.
JMLA welcomes the submission of any original manuscript that seeks to improve the practice of health sciences librarianship, to improve the provision of information in health or biological sciences, or to articulate important developments and history of the profession and related fields. The JMLA also welcomes manuscripts that extend the knowledgebase through research in the organization, delivery, use, and impact of information on health care, biomedical research, and health professionals’ education.
Manuscripts are reviewed for possible publication with the understanding that they have not been published, submitted, or accepted for publication elsewhere. General availability or mass distribution in an online format is considered publication. Presentation of a paper at a conference or inclusion of a preliminary report in published proceedings is not considered prior publication provided that the submitted manuscript is substantially more complete than the initial report and any duplicative material is kept to a minimum. Specific cases should be referred to the editor.
