Abstract

Editorials are rare in the world of Library History and usually presage some major event. This occasion is no exception, but the imminent changes to this journal are, we believe, all to its benefit. From 1998 the journal will be chang- ing its spots, as it were, and moving from London to Leeds to become a fully commercial publication. It will be re-Iaunched as a twice-yearly journal, with each issue containing an average of 80 pages, a substantial increase on the present annual average of ca. 100 pages. The Committee is pleased to announce that W.S. Maney & Son of Leeds have sufficient confidence and enthusiasm in the study of library history and the future prospects of our journal to take over its publication from volume 14. Library History will no longer be the official organ of the Library History Group. This is not a question of 'Hail and Fare- well', but, rather, 'Farewell and Hail'! The prospective changes have become inevitable for a variety of reasons.
