The Journal of Scotch-Irish Studies is devoted to the encouragement of scholarly studies on the Scotch-Irish people: their history, language, music, material culture, and political and legal philosophy, and their contributions in general to the United States of America.

The Journal invites submission of manuscripts on Scotch-Irish topics. Please contact the Editors at the Center for Scotch-Irish Studies, Post Office Box 71, Glenolden, PA 19036-0071, for guidelines on style, format of references, etc., and for information on acceptable computer software to be used in disk preparation.

We intend to publish an issue of the Journal at least once each year. Papers are subject to peer review, and must conform with standards for academic publication.
