  3. Volume 2, Issue 1 - The Political Librarian

Announcing the release of Vol 2, Issue 1 of The Political Librarian. We intend The Political Librarian to be a place for the library community to talk through some under-recognized issues around politics, political power, and policy that affect us in the 21st century. 

Vol 2, Issue 2, published 15 April 2016, is our first issue published through the open scholarship platform of Washington University Libraries. It includes opinion pieces, white papers, and a peer-reviewed submission covering a wide range of policy issues affecting libraries.
