I applaud this new venture, and it's a great opportunity for LIS students, 
but I'm not sure it represents much of a publishing opportunity for faculty 
and the rest of us since the peer-review process applies only to 
student-written articles and the peer in "peer-reviewed" is literal---LIS 
students reviewing LIS student papers.  Non-student papers are not subject 
to peer review.
