Aims & Scope

Polish Libraries is an English-language peer-reviewed academic journal published yearly by the National Library of Poland and addressed to foreign library milieus.

It aims at presenting issues related to historical and current challenges facing Polish libraries and library and information studies, including their ancillary and related sciences.

The articles published in the journal cover a broad scope of topics and research fields, such as history, with history of libraries in particular, theory of bibliography, cataloguing, archival science, museology, manuscriptology, codicology, bookbinding studies, conservation and restoration, library statistics and sociology, readership studies, art history, musicology, and literary studies.

All of the articles published in the journal are peer reviewed by experts who do not know the identity of authors and vice versa (double-blind reviewing process).

The reviewers are acknowledged external specialists, that is, they are not employed by the publisher.

The editorial board of the Polish Libraries has been gradually increasing the number of reviews prepared by scholars affiliated to foreign research institutions.

Not only does it help improve the academic quality of the articles, but it also aims at raising the awareness of the existence of the journal abroad.
