The Hazelden-Pittman Archives has generously offered to support the Alcohol and Temperance History Group (ATHG) as the publisher and distributor of The Social History of Alcohol Review (SHAR). The Alcohol and Temperance History Group will retain ownership and editorial control of The Social History of Alcohol Review. ATHG dues, once reserved for the production and postage costs of SHAR, will now be free to fund prizes for the best new work in our field and for the organization of an international conference on the social history of alcohol. This partnership will also enable SHAR to become a quarterly publication in 2001. Unless there is widespread objection, the editors will proceed with this partnership as soon as practicable.
