To celebrate Disability History Month, we are making a selection of articles free to read from The Journal of Literary & Cultural Disability Studies, available until 18th December 2021.

The Journal of Literary & Cultural Disability Studies (JLCDS) was founded by Professor David Bolt fifteen years ago, in the summer of 2006. Since then, JLCDS has progressed from an online publication that was published twice a year to the present quarterly available around the world in high quality print and electronic formats. JLCDS has been published by Liverpool University Press and has been part of the esteemed Project MUSE collection for more than a decade. More recently it was indexed in Scopus and last year’s CiteScore of 0.2 has now increased to 0.4.
