Abstract
Pennsylvania Libraries: Research & Practice (PaLRaP) is now readying its 3rd issue for publication. In 2012, the College and Research Division of the Pennsylvania Library Association and the University Library System E-Journal Publishing Program of the University of Pittsburgh joined together to find a way to more effectively highlight and share librarians’ scholarly and professional work. Originally envisioned as a journal focused on the work of Pennsylvania’s academic librarians, PaLRaP has evolved to become more inclusive of the larger professional community. The journal now includes other types of content (such as feature articles and news items) and aims to help new authors develop high-quality articles for publication. Along with the help of the library publisher, the editorial team is pursuing new opportunities, including rolling issues, more sophisticated statistics and usage measures, the ability to accept payments and donations, and opportunities for print on demand. The editors will discuss PaLRaP from inception to future plans and share thoughts on how library publishers and editors and can work together to incubate and improve scholarship and professional development.
