_New Age Navigation: Innovative E-Journal Interfaces_ I am pleased to announce the formal publication of my latest Magnus Opus [:-) "New Age Navigation: Innovative Information Interfaces for Electronic Journals" _The Serials Librarian_ 45(2)(2003): 87-123 ABSTRACT. While it is typical for electronic journals to offer conventional search features similar to those provided by electronic databases, a select number of e-journals have also made available higher-level access options as well. In this article, we review several novel technologies and implementations that creatively exploit the inherent potential of the digital environment to further facilitate use of e-collections. We conclude with speculation on the functionalities of a next-generation e-journal interface that are likely to emerge in the near future. A offprint/preprint copy of the article is available at [ http://www.public.iastate.edu/~gerrymck/NewAge.pdf ] The article served as the basis of a presentation I gave at the _Internet Librarian 2003 Conference_ [ http://www.infotoday.com/il2003/] in Monterey, California in early November.
