American Libraries is the flagship magazine of the American Library Association since 1970, replacing the ALA Bulletin. As the official magazine of the ALA, its responsibility is to convey to the membership and other readers full and accurate information about the activities, purposes, and goals of the Association. It also reports on news about all matters of importance to libraries and librarians, and provides an opportunity for the expression of diverse views by ALA members. Physical materials can be found in the ALA Archives, record series 13/6/10.
