10237	Varnum, Kenneth J.	Letter from the Editor	2017-12-22	1	.pdf	application/pdf	359	20	65	INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND LIBRARIES | DECEMBER 2017 1 I am excited to have been appointed Editor of Information Technology and Libraries as the journal Originally published as the Journal of Library Automation, ITAL has a long history of tracking the rapid-fire changes in technology as it relates to libraries. over the past 50 years, technology will continue to change not just the way libraries offer services But I think there is more we can do for LITA and the library technology profession by expanding the scope and impact of the journal through seeking and articles that are at the journal's core, and being more rapidly responsive to the evolving technology-related work you do so that others can learn about it. I'd like to close by extending my thanks to Bob Gerrity, who served as ITAL's editor for the past 6 service to ITAL, LITA, and the profession. varnum@umich.edu mailto:varnum@umich.edu	./cache/10237.pdf	./txt/10237.txt
