>> Dear Colleagues,
>> The issue of electronic journals is very timely, and all those
>> involved in publishing have followed this fairly recent trend,
>> which moves precisely toward electronic publications.
>> For electronic publications, in this case journals, to be
>> effective, they must have the same high standards of traditional
>> publications and thus they may require as much time as traditional
>> publications: see the case of the new California Italian Studies,
>> announced about a year ago, and ready to appear shortly, as I read
>> from Thomas Harrison's email.
>> As to Annali d'italianistica, the journal has a website
>> (www.ibiblio.org/annali), which contains the table of contents of
>> all issues, the introductory essay to recent volumes, and all book
>> reviews since 1998, freely accessible. I am considering expanding
>> the electronic publication of the journal.
>>
>> What the initiator of this interesting debate had in mind, most
>> likely, may be a forum for discussion, some kind of blog (?),
>> where one can post one's research and receive some feedback from
>> colleagues. Obviously this list does also serve this purpose.
>>
>> Concerning traditional journals, I would like to bring to the
>> attention of Italianists a journal published at Carolina, Romance
>> Notes, open to all of us. In fact the editor of the journal
>> solicits submissions from Italianists because historically essays
>> on Italian issues have appeared only sporadically. I am posting
>> below pertinent information. For any Hispanists of the list, I am
>> also posting information about another journal of our Department,
>> Hispanofila.

>> Let's keep the discussion going.
