Dear all, Volume 22 of Judaica Librarianship (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://ajlpublishing.org__;!!KGKeukY!ziYphMaGeSfbFMm656tXV7JruABKi4EXvescjUKO2o2TAXRbi15glGdKvxYcP8AcBJFKV6VBIHc33Em4saaTLDEce0Xjp9w$ )<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://ajlpublishing.org)m__;!!KGKeukY!ziYphMaGeSfbFMm656tXV7JruABKi4EXvescjUKO2o2TAXRbi15glGdKvxYcP8AcBJFKV6VBIHc33Em4saaTLDEcpVNGMHE$ >, co-edited by myself and Nadav Sharon of University of Toronto Libraries, will be published later this year, after a two-year hiatus. The pandemic took its toll on many of us, and I appreciate your patience and understanding regarding the delayed publication. Essays related to the provenance of Judaica collections frame the main theme of this issue, but it contains a verity of other topics as well, relevant to both divisions of AJL.
Judaica Librarianship Editorial Board met earlier this month for its annual meeting to discuss, among other things, a call for papers for JL 23. We call your attention to the fact that the journal will celebrate 40 years of activity in 2023(!).Your creative ideas on how to celebrate this milestone in form of journal submissions are needed—please let me know how you would like to contribute to this issue. I look forward to discussing any ideas you may have! In addition, JL would welcome submissions on the following topics: * Provenance of entire collections or specific items, and theoretical approaches to provenance in Jewish libraries (continued from issue #22) * Digital preservation of and access to Judaica collections * Outreach in Jewish libraries * Cataloging as a research process, including any challenges (entire collections or specific items) * Judaica collections in Ukraine * Jewish libraries after COVID A big thank-you to JL Editorial Board members for their continuing support and guidance, and special thanks to Roger Kohn who served on the board for 18 years! * Zachary M.

Arizona State University's four campuses are located in the Salt River Valley on ancestral territories of Indigenous peoples, including the Akimel O’odham (Pima) and Pee Posh (Maricopa) Indian Communities, whose care and keeping of these lands allows us to be here today.
