College & Research Libraries News is published 11 times per year on the first of every month except August. A combined July/August issue is published July 1. C&RL News prints classified ads, primarily for job postings, in each issue. Advertisers may purchase line or display advertisement for the print edition; an online version of each print advertisement can be purchased for a nominal fee and will run for 60 days on the ALA JobLIST Web site. Online-only advertisements are also available.
Information regarding product advertising in C&RL News and other ACRL periodicals can be found on the Advertising Information for ACRL Publications page.
All classified advertising orders for C&RL News, American Libraries, and online-only ads are submitted through ALA's online resource, ALA JobLIST - the number one source for jobs in Library and Information Science and Technology (http://joblist.ala.org). Please note that ads are not accepted via e-mail, nor do we use insertion orders. Ads are only assured placement in the proper issue if they are placed through the JobLIST system.

Display ads are formatted ads, either laid out by C&RL News staff in a basic, standard style or supplied by the advertiser as a camera-ready PDF.

Ads laid out by C&RL News staff are limited to the in-house style.
