Launched in 2022, Africa Bibliography, Research and Documentation brings together essay content from Africa Bibliography, the authoritative guide to works in African studies published under the auspices of the International African Institute annually since 1984, with the former African Research & Documentation, the journal of SCOLMA (the UK Libraries and Archives Group on Africa) published since 1973.
Africa Bibliography, Research and Documentation publishes articles and book reviews on topics relating to research, libraries, archives and publishing in and on Africa, and in African Studies. The journal can consider a variety of submissions in both shorter and longer formats.
Africa Bibliography, Research and Documentation is provided as part of a subscription to the Africa Bibliography. From 2022, the bibliography is being published as an online database only. The online consolidated database version of the bibliography brings together every record collected since its foundation, producing a rich and interactive resource for all scholars interested in the study of Africa. Some 6,000-8,000 entries are added annually.
