handle is hein.journals/npvolsq42 and id is 1 raw text is: Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly 42(1) 5-6 From the Editors' Desk @TheAuthor(s)20I3 Reprints and permission: sagepub.com/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1 177/0899764012473387 http://nvsq.sagepub.corn OSAGE This year's ARNOVA 2012 Conference took place in Indianapolis, Indiana. As always the conference featured several hundred paper presentations and was well-attended. We look forward to seeing the best research presented at the 2012 Conference submit- ted and published in NVSQ. The Editors congratulate Dr. Sarah Busse Spencer for receiving the NVSQ Best Article Award for 2011 for her article, Culture as Structure in Emerging Civic Organizations in Russia, published in volume 40, number 6. At the 2012 ARNOVA Conference, the Editors-in-Chief, the NVSQ Editorial Board, and Leah Fargotstein, the Editor of Social Science Journals at Sage Publications, discussed next steps in furthering the development and recognition of NVSQ as the leading journal in the nonprofit field. After acknowledging the improve- ment in impact of NVSQ and the growth in manuscripts submitted, we concluded that NVSQ should move into the world of social media and consider other possibilities to reach out to a broader audience. Surprisingly, Wikipedia seems to be a very important referring system for journal content and NVSQ. As a consequence, NVSQ now has a Wikipedia page that contains bibliographical information plus links to the NVSQ homepage. Sage Publications also hosts several Facebook and Twitter channels in Political Science and Public Administration, Management and Sociology where NVSQ articles are featured. Please see: http://facebook.com/sagecqpolitics, http:// twitter.com/SAGECQPolitics, http://twitter.com/SAGEManagement and http://twitter.com/ SAGEsociology. At our request, Sage Publications has provided tips for NVSQ authors and friends to support the journal and increase recognition of their own work and NVSQ. 1. Contribute to Wikipedia - We recognize that many students use Wikipedia as the starting point for their research. We have created a basic page for NVSQ which, with additional content, will increase the visibility of NVSQ. 2. Join Facebook or LinkedIn - Setting up a Facebook page for NVSQ offers a simple way of engaging with readers outside the journal. We have asked ARNOVA, parent association to NVSQ, to establish a Facebook page for NVSQ. 3. Upload videos and audio - User-generated and multimedia content - e.g. podcasts and YouTube videos - are an increasingly important research resource, especially for students. We plan to make podcasts that introduce articles in issues of NVSQ to the readership and to other interested followers. 4. Join and use Twitter - Twitter is a micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read short text-based messages known as tweets. Twitter allows users to set up search terms so that they can monitor discussions in
