Call for Articles: Acquisitions and Transformation (Against the Grain)

If you are interested in contributing an article on the topic of "Acquisitions and Transformation" to the February 2013 issue of Against the Grain, please contact guest editor Jesse Holden (jholden@usc.edu). A variety of perspectives  — including those from libraries, publishers, and vendors — on the topic of "transformation" are welcome and encouraged!
