CFP Extended: Special Issue of the Journal of Web Librarianship on library websites

This issue will be edited by Professor Amanda Spink and Dr. Helen Partridge; all queries and submissions should be sent to them (see below).

designs. Papers may include the evaluation and testing of new user-centered measures.
