The Section formerly known as Serials is now the Continuing Resources
Section.

The new name reflects trends in our profession, the materials that we
work with, and the digital information environment.

Do you subscribe to, license, organize, provide access to, or create
continuing resources?  Then come join us!

Here's our new Mission Statement:
* *
*ALCTS Continuing Resources Section*

*Mission:*  To contribute to library service and librarianship through
development of theory and practice concerning continuing resources in
all formats; to initiate and support studies, reports, discussions and
publications; to encourage specialized education programming, and
training for practitioners in the fields of continuing resources
management; and to coordinate the activities within the Association for
Library Collections & Technical Services and within the American Library
Association with respect to continuing resources in all formats.

Thanks!
