Thanks go to everyone who has been so supportive of the Museum Anthropology Review project over the past year. We are especially grateful for the many authors and peer-reviewers who have helped make it happen and to our friends at the Indiana University Libraries who have facilitated the journal’s move to Open Journal Systems as part of IUScholarWorks Journals. If you have missed it, the basic story is that this site, which hosted the journal itself during its first trial year will now be the home to a companion weblog , while the journal itself can now be found in IUScholarWorks Journals, a site hosted by the Indiana University Bloomington Libraries.

I am pleased to report that work on the journal’s next issue is nearly complete and that we anticipate publishing it before the end of April. While we published a rich diversity body of material in Volume 1, including some fine long review essays, Volume 2 will be the first to feature full peer-reviewed research articles. We have quite a lineup of solid articles in the accepted cue and we are eager to begin sharing these with readers in the next issue.

While readers are urged to consult the new MAR site and, especially, to consider registering as a “reader” (i.e. subscriber) to the journal (its free, see here), I want to stress that none of the content originally published here is going to be moved, at least not for the foreseeable future. The published content on this site gets lots of daily use and that is great. Also, all of the work originally published here remains archived as part of IUScholarWorks Repository. This later step will insure its longterm preservation and availability.

As I noted in the previous post, Museum Anthropology Review has a new email address of its own. Find us at museumanthropologyreview (at) gmail (dot) com.

Thanks!
