It is the policy of NCTE in its journals and other publications to provide a forum for the open discussion of ideas concerning the content and the teaching of English and the language arts. Publicity accorded to any particular point of view does not imply endorsement by the Executive Committee, the Board of Directors, or the membership at large, except in announcements of policy, where such endorsement is clearly specified. About the Cover This beautiful art, created by Leo and Diane Dillon, is from the front cover of the picture book To Every Thing There Is a Season, published by The Blue Sky Press, an imprint of Scholastic, Inc. The Dillons have used multiple media to illustrate the timeless Bible passage that begins "To every thing there is a season, and time to every purpose under the heaven; A time to be born, and a time to die . .. A time to weep, and a time to laugh... A time to get, and a time to lose. ..." Drawing on artistic techniques from cultures around the world, these award- winning artists celebrate on many levels the diversity of our culture as they illustrate the passage of our lives. We chose this image for the cover of Books for You not only because it reflects the diversity of the books within this volume and the readers who we hope will enjoy it, but also because as we move from one millennium to the next, as we watch our high school students move from grade to grade, as we ourselves progress through life, we each must learn that, indeed, to everything there is a season. We are most grateful to Leo and Diane Dillon and Blue Sky Press/Scholastic, Inc. for allowing us to reprint this art on our cover.

Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing pUblic awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law With regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table ofcontents pages from current issues ofmajor feministjournals are reproduced in each issue ofFeminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As pUblication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication. 2. Frequency of pUblication. 3. U.S. subscription price(s). 4. Subscription address. 5.
