We are excited to announce the launch of the JLIS new website and to present its new look at https://jlis.lis.ntu.edu.tw/

Journal of Library & Information Studies (ISSN 1606-7509) is a biannual peer-reviewed journal published by the Department of Library and Information Science, National Taiwan University. The JLIS is indexed by TSSCI (first tier), Scopus, Web of Science ESCI、LISA、LISTA, etc.

The new website highlights the international connection within the scholarly world in order to attract more international audience. It also enhances user experience through Responsive Web Design (RWD) so that users can easily navigate our journal contents using a wide range of browsers and devices. The new homepage and cover of the journal include the same design using a combination of fore-edge, book pages, and data. In order to imply the development and transformation of library and information science research in the digital age, the various lengths and colors of lines present intertwined messages expressing a great amount of information, and the 3-dimensional isometric perspective reflects the space of a library building. All the above elements together demonstrate the interdisciplinary nature of library and information science that interrelates information, technology, and management.

Special thanks to the visual design team led by Professor Ting-Yi Lin at the National Taiwan University of Science and Technology.
