Borrowers and Lenders: The Journal of Shakespeare and Appropriation is a peer-reviewed, online, born-digital, multimedia journal that welcomes original scholarship engaging with the afterlives of Shakespearean texts and their literary, filmic, multimedia, and critical histories. It encourages contributors to use the online format to its best advantage, in particular, by imagining how to enhance or illustrate their essays with multimedia (screen captures, sound clips, images, and so on). B&L won the CELJ's "Best New Journal" Award in 2007. B&L is fully indexed in the MLA Bibliography and the World Shakespeare Bibliography. The journal was founded in 2005 by Christy Desmet and Sujata Iyengar of the English Department at the University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602, USA.
