    Young, Philip; Vilelle, Luke (Journal of Academic Librarianship, 2011-03-04)

An online survey announced on library listservs assessed their prevalence and practices. Library journal clubs promote current awareness, analysis skills, group cohesion, and intra-library knowledge, and offer a low-cost professional development opportunity in times of budget difficulties.
