TSL (ISSN 0036-6595) is the journal of the School Library Association, published quarterly.
Each issue contains articles, regular features, reviews of new books - fiction and non-fiction - and reviews of apps, websites and other media in a special section, SLA Digital. Members can read the journal online here (you'll need to be logged in).
The journal is free to members, or you can subscribe. To find out more about subscribing to TSL please email info@sla.org.uk.
TSL is indexed by EBSCO, Gale and ProQuest.
There is a sample edition of The School Librarian available to read online to see what it's like.
In 2021 TSL was refreshed, with some design and content changes. Because they're still so new, only a few pages are available to view, but you can see the 2021 TSL here: Autumn 2021. You can view the pages at the beginning, 22-28 and pages 71 - the end.
The issue to the right is from Summer 2019; 67-2. You can read that whole issue: The School Librarian here.
Members can access the past two years of journals online via the Members' tab at the top of the page (you need to be logged in).
Book knowledge is such a vital part of being able to effectively encourage readers' journeys and so a significant part of our work is reviewing books for children. They are accessible to members online and in our quarterly journal, creating maximum opportunities for browsing and finding specific resources.
