Dear IASA Members,

We welcome original research articles, case studies, reflections, reviews, and reports addressing all areas of sound and audiovisual archiving and preservation, including technical, theoretical, ethical, and practical perspectives. Authors of recent IASA conference presentations are invited to develop their work into more detailed accounts for publication in the journal.
