With volume 42 (1998), the Year's Work articles will return to
publication in Library Resources & Technical Services (LRTS). Most
recently, several excellent bibliographic essays on resources in
technical and collections services appeared in New Directions in Technical
Services: Trends and Sources (1993-1995) published in
1997 in continuation of the articles last published in LRTS in
1993.
Bibliographic essays and review articles identify, analyze and
discuss significant resources and trends in areas of collection,
preservation and technical services. Although these articles have
previously focused on the literature of a single year, the new
editor will be invited to consider this approach in the context of
today's needs. The goal remains to present the best bibliographic
essays relating to the work of ALCTS members: acquisitions,
collection management, cataloging, preservation and serials.
Toward this end, Library Resources & Technical Services (LRTS) is
in search of an editor to develop and edit the year's work
articles. In consultation with the editor and assistant editors
for the sections, the year's work editor determines the topics,
selects the authors, and edits the articles for publication in the
July (n3) issue.
The Year's Work Editor is one of 8 assistant editors and a member
of the LRTS Editorial Board.
Please send a statement of interest to me at your earliest
convenience. The position is available immediately and appointment
by September 1 is highly desirable.
Jennifer Younger, editor
