Letter from the Editors (June 2023) Letter from the Editors Kenneth J. Varnum and Marisha C. Kelly INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND LIBRARIES | JUNE 2023 https://doi.org/10.6017/ital.v42i2.16XXX Welcome to the June 2023 issue. See below for updates on our hosting migration plans, editorial board membership, and our call for submissions. Peer-reviewed articles in the current issue are listed here: • Supporting Faculty’s Instructional Video Creation Needs for Remote Teaching: A Case Study on Implementing eGlass Technology in a Library Multimedia Studio Space / Hanwen Dong • Technology Integration in Storytime Programs: Provider Perspectives / Maria Cahill, Erin Ingram and Soohyung Joo • A Tale of Two Tools: Comparing LibKey Discovery to Quicklinks in Primo VE / Jill K. Locascio and Dejah Rubel Mary Carrier also shares her experience in creating a coding club for kids and teens in this month’s “Public Libraries Leading the Way” column. She highlights helpful resources and tools in her article “Community-Driven Programming: Offering Coding and Robotics Classes in your Library.” ITAL Will Move to a New Host this Summer As mentioned in the March Letter from the Editor, ITAL is moving from our longtime hosting at Boston College to ALA Production Services. A reminder of a few important details: • Our landing page URL, https://italjournal.org/, will get you to the journal’s front page both now and after the migration is complete. • URLs for articles will change, but DOIs will continue to resolve the new home of the journal. We will work with our current host, Boston College, to set up redirects for as many informational pages as possible to the new location. • For authors and reviewers, there should not be any significant differences because we will continue to use the Open Journal System platform. • Articles published in ITAL (and our two sibling journals, Library Leadership and Management and Library Resources and Technical Services) will continue to be Open Access with no fees charged to authors or readers. Authors maintain copyright in their work. If you would like to receive an email when the September 2023 issue is published at our new location, create a user account by going to the user registration page. Be sure to check the “Yes, I would like to be notified of new publications and announcements” box near the bottom of the sign-up page to receive an email when future issues are published. We are very grateful to Boston College for their support of Information Technology and Libraries over the past decade and to the Core Board for supporting this migration project. Editorial Board Membership Update June marks the end of terms for six of our Editorial Board colleagues. Marisha and I extend our gratitude to Lori Ayre, Jon Goddard, Soo-yeon Hwang, Holi Kubly, Brady Lund, and Paul Swanson for their commitment, dedication, and excellent service to ITAL and the library technology profession over the four years they have volunteered on the Editorial Board. https://ejournals.bc.edu/index.php/ital/article/view/15201 https://ejournals.bc.edu/index.php/ital/article/view/15201 https://ejournals.bc.edu/index.php/ital/article/view/15701 https://ejournals.bc.edu/index.php/ital/article/view/16253 https://ejournals.bc.edu/index.php/ital/article/view/16617 https://ejournals.bc.edu/index.php/ital/article/view/16617 https://doi.org/10.6017/ital.v42i1.16319 https://italjournal.org/ https://ejournals.bc.edu/index.php/ital/user/register INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND LIBRARIES MARCH 2023 LETTER FROM THE EDITORS 2 VARNUM AND KELLY In July, we will welcome new members to the Editorial Board. New members joining us for a two- year (renewable) term are: Cindi Blyberg, Joanna DiPasquale, John Klima, Ellen Schmid, and Le Yang. We are excited to have them join us. Be a Part of a Future Issue As the U.S. academic year hurdles to a close this spring, it’s a great time to think about the work you’ve accomplished and what you might share with your library colleagues near and far. Our Call for Submissions outlines the topics of interest to the journal—basically, if the submission discusses the intersection of libraries/archives/museums and technology, it’s potentially in scope—and the process for submitting an article. We’d love to consider your article for publication. Or, if you have an idea you’d like to discuss with ITAL’s editors, contact either of us at the email addresses below. Kenneth J.
