Aims and Scope. The purpose of Slavic & East European Information Resources is to provide a forum for the international exchange of information in the field of Slavic and East European (henceforth, Slavic) librarianship. Information includes original research, technical developments, news of the profession, reviews of books and electronic media, indeed anything that touches on the practice of Slavic librarianship in North America, all of Europe, the former Soviet Union and elsewhere in the world. Slavic & East European Information Resources will emphasize the current, concrete, and practical sides of Slavic librarianship, although it will not exclude other subjects.

Submission of Manuscripts. Address manuscripts to the Editor, Karen A. Rondestvedt, at rondest@stanford.edu, or to the appropriate column editor (refer to the journal's website at www.stanford.edu/~rondest/SEEIR/. Authors are strongly encouraged to submit manuscripts electronically. If submitting a disk, it should be prepared using MS Word and should be clearly labeled with the authors' names, file name, and software program. Each manuscript must be accompanied by a statement that it has not been published elsewhere and that it has not been submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. Authors are responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyrighted material from other sources and are required to sign an agreement for the transfer of copyright to the publisher. All accepted manuscripts, artwork, and photographs become the property of the publisher. All parts of the manuscript should be typewritten, double-spaced, with margins of at least one inch on all sides. Number manuscript pages consecutively throughout the paper. Authors should also supply a shortened version of the title suitable for the running head, not exceeding 50 character spaces. Each article should be summarized in an abstract of not more than 100 words. Avoid abbreviations, diagrams, and reference to the text in the abstract.

References. References, citations, and general style of manuscripts for this journal should follow the Chicago style (as outlined in the latest edition of The Chicago Manual of Style of the University of Chicago Press). Examples of notes for many different types of material can be found at: www.wisc.edu/writetest/Handbook/DocChicago.html.

When an article, book, or report is cited, a superscript number should be placed at the end of the referent sentence, clause, or quotation. Number such citations sequentially as the paper continues, and list all references at the end of the article, numbered in the same order in which they are cited in the text. Use the form of the author's name that is on the article or the title page of the book that you are using; do not shorten all first names to just an initial. Use the short-title form for subsequent references, not ibid. The reference section, like the text, should be double-spaced throughout, and should conform to the following style:
