ello and happy fall, everyone! As I wrote in From Your Editor, we are enjoying a near miss from a storm and the beautiful blue skies and cooler weather that followed. I don’t know about you, but the transition to autumn always makes me a bit nostalgic. I love football, family gatherings, and all things pumpkin and apple and cinnamon spice! No time to lose, though, we have lots of news to cover so let’s get cracking!
People and Places I’m still working away on the memoirs of the conference. I’m calling it “Doing the Charleston! My Personal History of Scholarly Communication.” I couldn’t do this alone! I’m grateful to Charles Watkinson from University of Michigan Library and Michigan Publishing for keeping me on deadline, as well as the amazingly organized Darrell Gunter for his contributions and for the editorial help from Liz Weiss and Christine Utz from Annual Reviews. It really does take a village! Thank you to each person who has shared their remembrances, stories, and contributed to the timeline. The goal is for the book to be available for pre-order at the Charleston Conference and it will officially launch at ACRL! Keep an eye out for more details coming soon! continued on page 8
