Since 1990, The Qualitative Report (TQR) has served as a global learning community for qualitative researchers. As a journal, we give researchers an outlet to report their qualitative research and to reflect on how they conduct their work. We have trained a generation of editors and reviewers to provide effective and supportive mentoring to our authors. Our readers download thousands of TQR articles every day and authors cite these works at a rate that grows dramatically each year. As an online resource, we provide unique guides to qualitative research web sites, software apps, design and methodology texts, and teaching and learning qualitative inquiry resources. As a weekly news source, we share the latest developments in the world of qualitative research, new calls for papers and presentations, and the most recent employment openings for qualitative researchers and qualitative data analysts. As a scholarly conference, we gather each January to learn what is new and cutting edge and to celebrate our community as we appreciate what each of us contributes to the field of qualitative research and what participating in the world of TQR has meant to our own personal and professional growth.

January 12-15, 2021
