Information For Librarians

We encourage research librarians to include English Language Instruction Studies (ELIS) among their library’s electronic journal collections and research resources. As an open-access scholarly journal, ELIS provides free and unrestricted access to all published articles, enabling libraries to support research, teaching, and learning without subscription barriers. Libraries may also find it beneficial that ELIS is published using the Open Journal Systems (OJS) platform, which is widely adopted by academic institutions and research organizations for scholarly publishing.

By including ELIS in library catalogs, institutional repositories, discovery services, and electronic resource collections, librarians help increase the visibility, accessibility, and long-term preservation of high-quality research in English language education and related disciplines. The journal welcomes collaboration with university libraries and information centers in promoting open scholarship and expanding access to reliable academic resources for students, educators, researchers, and the wider community.

ELIS is committed to the principles of open-access publishing and sustainable scholarly communication. We invite librarians to recommend ELIS to faculty members, researchers, and students, support the dissemination of published research through institutional platforms, and encourage authors within their institutions to consider ELIS as a trusted venue for publishing original scholarly work. Through collaboration with academic libraries, ELIS aims to strengthen the global exchange of knowledge and promote excellence in English language education research.
