Volume 61, Issue 1 of Feliciter is now ready to be viewed online. Below is the outline of what you'll find inside.

This will be the final issue of Feliciter in this format. The CLA Executive Council and Communications Standing Committee Chair have had lengthy discussions on the alternatives going forward and plan to introduce a new online platform that will continue to provide our membership and others in the community a means to learn, be informed and engage each other. Moving forward we will continue to solicit articles and news worthy items from the community. We appreciate your patience as we go through this transition. The best is yet to come...a new platform and format for Feliciter and Digest is an article within this issue that further explains our intent.  

As such, we hope that you enjoy perusing this issue and thank you to all the contributors as well as our guest editors, Norene James, Katherine Koch and Lisa Shamchuk as well as our liaison, Jim Bennett.

The Feliciter is currently available in pdf format for your convenience;
