FROM THE EDITOR
Jain Fletcher
This is the shortest Newsletter that I have produced thus far, coming in at only 24 pages. Even so, it is both a complete and an exemplary microcosm of a "between Conferences" issue. This is to say that all the expected features of a June issue are present; they are just shorter. Among these features are the usual elements (the President’s and Editor’s columns and the Treasurer’s report) and the once-yearly announcement of OLAC election winners. All of our columnists have also submitted their timely offerings. Barbara Vaughan’s "News and Announcements" column gives a few previews of ways that OLAC members can impart their knowledge and experience in responses to important initiatives (see the "genre/form" item and the "FRAD" entry), among other things. Amy Weiss’ "Book Reviews" column presents a review of Cataloging Cultural Objects, a topic of interest in its own right, not to mention its special interest to those of us who took one of the workshops on the same topic at the last OLAC Conference. Last, but certainly not least, Jay Weitz bestows on all of us the benefit of his vast knowledge in his "Q&A" column. In all, I hope you will agree, this issue is a great read!
