  • Submit your manuscript text, including appendices, as a single Word file.
  • Page size should be 8.5 x 11-inches, with 1-inch margins, and portrait layout.
  • Please indicate whether or not the article is to be peer reviewed.

Word limits vary based on the type of article. Please see see our Submission Guidelines page for guidance on article lengths.

References

It is the author's obligation to provide complete references with the necessary information. The Georgia Library Quarterly accepts papers edited according to APA style only. Please use in-text citations for articles and place all citations as references at the end, rather than as footnotes. IMPORTANT: Do not include any footnotes and use APA style.
