43 Fam. Ct. Rev. 1 (2005)

handle is hein.journals/fmlcr43 and id is 1 raw text is: EDITORIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS FAMILY COURT REVIEW DEVELOPMENTS January 2005 This issue is a landmark in the continuing evolution of Family Court Review. I want to take this opportunity to acquaint readers with developments at their publication in this separate column, which will be followed by more traditional Editorial Notes and Guest Editorial Notes devoted to this particular issue. BLACKWELL PUBLISHING This is the first issue of FCR published by Blackwell Publications. Blackwell is the lead- ing publisher of journals for learned societies in the world. It publishes over 700 journals in partnership with more than 550 academic and professional societies. More information about Blackwell can be found at www.blackwellpublishing.com. Blackwell was selected as FCR's publisher through a competitive process that took about eighteen months. Several respected journal publishers submitted proposals to AFCC which were evaluated by a Committee of the AFCC Board of Directors consisting of Mary Ferriter, Olga Batsedis, last year's student managing editor, Peter Salem, AFCC's Executive Director, and myself. We were ably assisted by the advice and counsel of Arline Rotman and Lisa Spar, a Hofstra Law School Librarian and an expert on the burgeoning world of electronic publication and resources. We could not have accomplished this process without the extensive help and counsel the AFCC Board Committee members and our consultants provided. The Committee recommended to the AFCC Board that it choose Blackwell to publish FCR for many reasons. Blackwell has impressive marketing and editorial expertise and experience with interdisciplinary journals (it publishes, for example, the Negotiation Journal of the Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School and Cornell Law School's Journal of Empirical Legal Studies). Blackwell will provide FCR readers with electronic access to past and present articles. Most importantly, the people at Blackwell are excited about the mission of FCR and AFCC. Their goal is to give FCR the broadest possible audience around the world. We welcome the opportunity to work with them to do so. The student staff and I thank Otis Dean of Blackwell and his colleagues for making this major publishing transition as seamless as possible. NEW COVER The first change readers will notice in this new era for FCR is its new cover and look. AFCC redesigned its logo. We thus needed to redesign FCR's cover. We worked with a FAMILY COURT REVIEW, Vol. 43 No. 1, January 2005 1-5 c 2005 Association of Family and Conciliation Courts
