Libyan Studies – The Journal of the British Institute for Libyan and Northern African Studies (BILNAS).
Libyan Studies is the annual journal of record for BILNAS, published in November each year, and online through First View. Contributions are peer-reviewed and cover a broad range of subjects, including archaeology, ancient and Islamic history, geology, geography and social sciences. The articles will appeal to readers with an interest in the Middle East and Mediterranean worlds as well as North Africa.
The Editor is Dr Victoria Leitch but we invite Guest Editors, on an annual basis, to submit expressions of interest to help form specialized themed sections in the journal. Please contact Dr Leitch if you are interested in this role, with a suggested theme.
If you would like to submit an article contact the editor (by email on [email protected]) and please read the Libyan Studies Journal Submissions Guide document which is also available here in French, or the Book Review Guidelines.
The deadline for the 2022 publication (Volume 53) has passed. We are accepting articles for 2023 now with a final deadline of January 2023, including book reviews.
