The Journal of Local Government Research and Innovation (JOLGRI) seeks to publish and foster knowledge development in educational, epistemological and practice advancements within local government that will result in alternative models practised in local government service delivery and governance. The journal has a rigorous, double-blind peer-review process and a rolling publication system, which encourages prompt publication of accepted papers. JOLGRI publishes research articles, notes, conceptual reviews and essays as well as practitioner-focused papers. Manuscripts are welcome from South Africa, Africa and across the globe.

The journal publishes one volume each year. Articles are published online when ready for publication and then printed in an end-of-year compilation. Additional collections may be published for special events (e.g. conferences) and when special themes are addressed.
