Aims and Scope

 

Book 2.0 is an interdisciplinary peer-reviewed journal that publishes articles and reviews about historical, modern and contemporary book creation, design, illustration and production by leading practitioners, scholars and theorists. Since its founding in 2010, Book 2.0 has explored topics that have included children’s literature and culture, traditional and modern storytelling, oral literature, poetry publishing and the enormous efforts being made by Indigenous speakers and their supporters to secure and sustain endangered languages. Book 2.0 also looks forward to providing a forum for promoting and sharing the most innovative and imaginative practices in the teaching of writing, illustration, book design and production.
