About this Journal

The Journal of L.M. Montgomery Studies is the only journal dedicated to L.M. Montgomery (1874-1942). One of the world’s most enduring writers, Montgomery is the author of Anne of Green Gables, amongst other works of fiction, as well as poetry, letters, and journals. The Journal of L.M. Montgomery Studies is a refereed, open access digital space. Its mandate is to publish intriguing, highly original, rigorously researched scholarship on all aspects of L.M. Montgomery’s life, influences, creative work, and legacy. Our scope is interdisciplinary and international. The journal is aimed at Montgomery scholars and at the broad community of Montgomery enthusiasts. The journal is the official scholarly publication of the L.M. Montgomery Institute (LMMI) at the University of Prince Edward Island. The L.M. Montgomery Institute Management Committee establishes the journal's focus and scope, and appoints the editorial board.  The editorial board is responsible for all editorial decisions.

The journal has a continuous publication schedule and accepts submissions year-round. The journal does not review already-published work or simultaneous submissions. Selected articles based on papers presented at the LMMI’s biennial conference will be solicited for peer review. The journal also welcomes articles not presented at the conference for peer review. 

Articles are published online and will be available on our website. Periodically, hard copies of a series of articles, such as those associated with an LMMI biennial conference, will be made available for purchase via print on demand.
