As a proud health librarian, I will continue to advocate for the journal & the co-owners, @ciliphlg.bsky.social. Thank you to Lynsey Hawker, Lesley Allen & all past HLG Co-Chairs for the opportunities you’ve given me as Editor-in-Chief of our professional journal 🙏

... & to contribute to the development & evolution of the journal. Under my stewardship the journal has, I have been told on numerous occasions (you know who you are, thank you), become a space known for being a supportive & welcoming place for novice & early career writers...

Big news! In February I tended my resignation as @hiljnl.bsky.social Editor-in-Chief & last Thursday I received my termination letter from co-owners of the journal, Wiley. It’s been an absolute pleasure & a privilege to lead such an incredible group of volunteer editors...
