Editor's Note:

This has been a difficult issue to get out—troubling times in the world, friends and various article writers ill and a few (to me, anyway) overwhelming projects in my own life—but we made it, and I think we've got an interesting and varied cornucopia of articles for you.

By the way, we're always looking for new writers so feel free to contact me at editor@ioba.org or aaabooks@azalea.net about ideas you'd like to develop into articles. We're always happy to get opinion items on any side of whatever issues affect our book world. My only criterion is that the items be well-written and well thought out... and not libelous.

Hope you enjoy this issue, perhaps learn something new or just get a giggle or two. And I have my fingers crossed for a prosperous and healthy summer for all of the book world inhabitants (and their critters)!
