*SPECIAL ISSUE CALL FOR PAPERS*


*Theme: Education for Organization, Access, and Use of Geographic
Information*

The peer-reviewed *Journal of Map & Geography Libraries (JMGL)* is inviting
submissions for a special issue on Education for the Organization, Access,
and Use of Geographic Information.

Geographic information (GI) is ubiquitous, persistent and growing rapidly.
GI is multidimensional, laden with context, subject to interpretation and
biases and frequently uncertain.  As with other information formats, those
holding cartographic resources and geospatial data both in print and born
digital endeavor to make the content findable and useable. Education for
organization, access, and use of GI includes (1) the knowledge, skills, and
abilities required for information professionals managing GI over its
lifecycle; (2) educating users how to find, identify, select, and obtain GI
for a variety of purposes; and (3) engagement with educators at K-12 and
higher education levels.

Articles are invited for this special issue of JMGL that report on current
research and development efforts that may build on previous work on GI
education related to its organization, access, and use.

*Possible topics include, but are not limited to:*

   - Outreach
   - K-12 collaborative activities
   - Spatial literacy
   - Training on geospatial data discovery; GI policy; geospatial metadata
   creation; or cartographic resource cataloging
   - Continuing Education for data provenance; collection management and
   development
   - Other professional development and competencies in libraries and
   archives
   - Tools/tool development which support education and learning for
   professional development and/or user populations
   - Reports, summaries, or reviews of current initiatives in continuing
   education and/or higher education for GI organization, access, and use
   topics.

*Interested authors should send an abstract of less than 500 words to the
Guest Editor, Wade Bishop, Ph.D. at wade.bishop at utk.edu
<+wade.bishop at utk.edu> by November 4, 2015.*

Final manuscripts are due January 20, 2016 and should be submitted
electronically to the journal's ScholarOne Manuscripts site at:
