ANALYST, FEBRUARY 1993, VOL. 118 1SN Editorial Changes to Editorial Staff on Analytical Journals: The Analyst, Analytical Proceedings and Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry At the end of February 1993 Judith Egan, who is currently the Editorial Manager (Analytical) and Editor of JAAS is leaving, after 14% years at the RSC, the last 4% as Manager. Her replacement will be Janice Gordon, who has been with the RSC since 1979, from 1981 onwards her work being on Analytical Abstracts. However, Judith is not disappearing from the analytical chemistry community altogether. She is getting married and moving to Southern Germany and has been appointed European Associate Editor for J A A S , with a role similar to that of Dr. Julian Tyson in the USA for The Analyst. Also, in order to maintain and improve times to publica- tion, she will be in a position to respond to fluctuating work loads by assisting the full-time staff with editorial work, on The Analyst and J A A S , as and when the need arises.Hence, the future arrangements for the journals appear favourable. We are in an excellent position to reduce our times to publication, and with US and European Associate Editors plus the experi- enced full-time staff in Cambridge, can continue to offer a competent and valuable service to all authors world-wide. If you have any queries or comments about the journals, or the new editorial arrangements, please do not hesitate to contact the editorial office.
