World Libraries Advisory Board

In 1990, GSLIS began Third World Libraries, a professional journal with a focus on libraries and socioeconomic development in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Its scope was broadened and the title changed to World Libraries in 1996. World Libraries is published twice a year and is indexed in Library Literature, Library and Information Science Abstracts, PAIS International, PAIS Select and Current Index to Journals in Education. Since 2005 World Libraries has been offered in an electronic journal format, first co-publishing with the print edition and then moving to an internet only edition. In addition to publishing new issues, the journal will continue to add articles from our archive as well as unique, web only content. Dominican GSLIS is one of a small number of library and information science schools publishing a national professional journal.

The World Libraries AdvisoryBoard is comprised of leaders in the arena of international librarianship.
