Aims & Scope

The online journal Reading in a Foreign Language (RFL) is a scholarly international refereed journal originally founded as a print journal in 1983 at the University of Aston, Birmingham, England.

The journal moved to the University of Hawai‘i in 2002 under the co-editorship of Richard R.

Day and Thom Hudson.

It is supported by the National Foreign Language Resource Center, and the Center for Language & Technology at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.

Reading in a Foreign Language has established itself as an excellent source for the latest developments in the field, both theoretical and pedagogic, including improving standards for foreign language reading.

This fully-refereed journal is published twice a year, in April and October.

The editors seek manuscripts concerning both the practice and theory of learning to read and the teaching of reading in any foreign or second language.

Reviews of scholarly books and teaching materials, conference reports, and discussions are also solicited.

The language of RFL is English, but lexical citations of languages other than English are acceptable.
