Dear Code4Lib community

Those who have been following the Code4Lib Journal may have noticed a slowdown in publication frequency over the past year. At present, the journal has only five active editors, most of whom are relatively new to the role. To ensure the journal's stability and sustainability, we need to expand our editorial team, regain access to essential systems (including the wiki, the Code4Lib WordPress platform, and Google Forms), and review our editorial processes.

As a result, Issue 62 and future issues of the Code4Lib Journal are currently on hold. Does anybody have past experience with the journal or an interest in contributing to its next phase?

Sincerely,



Edward Corrado
