Keep in mind that we only accept original content-we do not publish anything that’s been published elsewhere (including on your blog). The more complete your submission is, the better feedback we can give you. You may submit a rough draft, a partial draft, or a short pitch (a paragraph or two summarizing your argument and why it matters to our readers) paired with an outline. Thousands of your peers (and potential employers, clients, or publishers) will read your work, and you’ll also learn a lot in the process-about communicating your ideas, about writing, and even about the topic you thought you already knew so well when you started.

Once accepted, you’ll get extensive feedback from our team, and you’ll work closely with an editor on revisions. We want your article to be at its best, and we’ll push you to get there. We’ll be honest, though: writing for ALA takes work. Just aim to bring readers a fresh perspective on a topic that’s keeping you up at night. But you don’t need to wait for an idea that will redefine web design. If you’ve got an idea that will challenge our readers and move our industry forward, we want to hear about it.
