Journal News and Call to Action
Thank you to Cara Schlesinger and Chris Ameduri for their years of dedicated service and work publishing the Guild's Journal , a publication that enjoys a strong reputation for excellence in our field. Cara and Chris will continue to shepherd the 2019 Journal so that it gets to your mailboxes, something I am very grateful for as it will allow me to better learn the established workflows. Thank you both! That a special election had to be held to fill the position of chair, with the suspension of publication the alternative concerns me greatly. I have always regarded the Journal as a signature GBW benefit and contribution to the field. That issues of succession and sustainability can be complex I know first hand from my experiences with T he Bonefolder: an e-journal for the bookbinder… – ultimately we were victims of our own success. I see making the Journal sustainable the primary goal, and as such will want to create pathways and incentives for members of the editorial board
