The ALAN Review is a peer-reviewed (refereed) journal published by the Assembly on Literature for Adolescents of the National Council of Teachers of English. It is devoted solely to the field of literature for adolescents. It is published three times per academic year (fall, winter, and summer) and is sent to all members, individual and institutional, of ALAN (The Assembly on Literature for Adolescents of NCTE). Members of ALAN need not be members of NCTE.

THE ALAN REVIEW publishes reviews of and articles on literature for adolescents and the teaching of that literature: research studies, papers presented at professional meetings, surveys of the literature, critiques of the literature, articles about authors, comparative studies across genre and/or cultures, articles on ways to teach the literature to adolescents, and interviews of authors.

Those interested in submitting manuscripts for consideration in The ALAN Review should first familiarize themselves with these guidelines for authors. Manuscripts should be submitted electronically to alanreview@lsu.edu.

Archives of The ALAN Review are hosted at Virginia Tech and can be accessed from that web site. Note that archives run through 2011.
