Journal of East Asian Libraries: Vote on Change of Publishing Format
Task Force Final Report (PDF) | Gail King's Presentation
To All CEAL Members:
The CEAL Executive Board has been involved in discussions about the format of the Journal of East Asian Libraries since last year. As Past-President Peter Zhou announced during the Business Plenary at the CEAL meeting in Philadelphia, the Executive Board made a decision to ask CEAL members their opinion on this issue. Below is a summary explaining the actions of the Executive Board to date.
Linked above is a copy of the final report of the task force. Pages one and two of the report present the issues and the pros and cons of each approach. Please take the time to review this report and if you have any questions, send them to Gail King (gail_king@byu.edu) or Ellen Hammond (ellen.hammond@yale.edu). For further information, please also consult Gail King’s PowerPoint presentation at the CEAL meeting, also linked above.
The announcement to open the voting will take place on May 1 and the process will be similar to that for CEAL elections (that is, online voting).
I want to thank Gail King and Peter Zhou for their leadership on this issue and also recognize the contributions of the other Task Force Members: Hee-Sook Shin, Vickie Doll, Chengzhi Wang, and Joy Kim. The Task Force members did an exemplary job investigating the issues.
Best regards,
Ellen Hammond
