Archived introduction::
The Journal of Women in Educational Leadership is a refereed quarterly journal devoted to the publication of original research and scholarly investigations on the roles of women in educational leadership. The journal is committed to setting the standard for scholarship germane to gender issues in educational organizations at all levels, from public and private schools to universities and government. The content of the journal focuses on subjects such as leadership, history, mentoring, policy, politics, communication, law, finance, and management, as these exemplify the influences women exert and have exerted on educational practices and policies. A range of theoretical and methodological approaches is included, as are invited articles, research announcements, and technical columns. The journal is designed to serve as the main national forum for intellectual exchange on women in education.
The Journal of Women in Educational Leadership suspended publication in 2011. Copyright on issues through that date is held by ProActive Publications of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Those contents are archived here with their kind permission.
The JWEL resumed publication in the fall of 2017 as an online-only journal, under the editorship of Dr. Marilyn Grady, and is hosted at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
