*Apologies for cross-posting*
============================
Hello all,
As the Library Liaison for the American Astronomical Society (AAS), I
attended their board meeting last week and will be posting my notes in the
next few days.
The AAS and IOP Publishing (IOP) have asked though that I announce
immediately that all AAS research journals published with IOP will become
electronic only and will no longer print paper editions. This transition
will take effect with the 2015 subscription year and affects the
Astronomical Journal (AJ) and the Astrophysical Journal (ApJ),
Astrophysical Journal Letters (ApJL), and Astrophysical Journal Supplement
Series (ApJS).
Electronic-only publication will allow for further development of the AAS
journals, outside of the constraints of print providing even better
service to subscribers, authors and readers.
Full details can be found in this press release<

>.
