'Dissertations into Practice' - New Regular Feature

'Dissertations into Practice' is to be the new regular feature in the Health Information and Libraries Journal (HILJ).

Edited by Audrey Marshall, University of Brighton, the thinking behind the feature - which will appear in HILJ from March 2012 - is twofold: to encourage students and young professionals to write for publication and to highlight the potential impact of student research for practice. Co-written with their dissertation or workplace supervisor, the feature will include an extended abstract accompanied by an outline of the methods used and commentary on the implications for practice.

If you are a student or supervisor for this type of project, please get in touch with Audrey to explore how your project might feature in a future issue of HILJ.
