It is an essential resource for two-year college librarians and educators.

For an upcoming special edition, we are soliciting theoretical and practical submissions on Educational and Instructional Technology. Topics may include, but are not limited to:

* the role of the library as an educational resource
* instructional design
* learning theory
* the role of the librarian as instructor
* the impact of educational policies on library development and operations
* the changing profile of Learning Resource Centers in community colleges
* the relationship between library initiatives/programs and academic goals
* games and gaming as a library tool
* social networking in the library (Twitter, Facebook, Course Management Systems, etc)
* innovative uses of technology

Contributors are encouraged to address these and other concerns faced by professionals in libraries and information centers of two-year colleges.

Manuscripts may be approximately 10-40 typewritten, double-spaced pages (including references and abstract). Lengthier manuscripts may be considered at the discretion of the editor(s).
