Dear AJL members and ha-Safran readers, The next volume of AJL’s peer-reviewed journal, Judaica Librarianship will be published later this summer. It includes a number of excellent research articles and essays and I am doing my best to finish editing them, working with our wonderful volunteer copyeditors Nancy Sack and Judy Wolfthal, and completing the process of layout. All this work behind the scenes, including the double-blind peer review process which is now completed, is done voluntarily on our spare time and I apology for any delays.
While you wait for JL 20, you may want to read previous articles published in JL. As of today, ALL previous issues uploaded to the site (volumes 8–19) are available for free on behalf of AJL’s commitment to open access, including the issue published last year—all on http://ajlpublishing.org. Please note that as you access the journal site, article downloads are visualized on a map and a new discipline wheel shows the integration of JL articles into other fields. As of now, JL articles fit into 99 disciplines and all JL articles are part of the Jewish Studies<http://network.bepress.com/arts-and-humanities/jewish-studies/> and Library and Information Science<http://network.bepress.com/social-and-behavioral-sciences/library-and-information-science/> Commons. The discipline wheel is another way to discover articles on the Digital Commons network, shared by many academic institutions worldwide. Feel free to share your JL readings via email or on social media, but please do not share the downloaded PDFs. Instead, use the “share” button on article pages (see image) or copy/ paste the URL or DOI of article pages (for example: http://ajlpublishing.org/jl/vol19/iss1/1/ or doi:10.14263/2330-2976.1210<https://doi.org/10.14263/2330-2976.1210>). That way, we and JL authors can keep track of download counts (now over 21,000). On behalf of JL editorial board, Rachel Leket-Mor, JL Editor Arizona State University Library [cid:image001.jpg@01D2D304.A7476690]
