Dear Subscribers,

 We are approaching the end of our tenth year together managing this delightful and often fascinating forum, and that seems a fitting time to end our tenure and pass the List over to new hands. 

We seek nominations or self-nominations to take over the editing of NABOKV-L early in 2016 (or as soon thereafter as the selection process is complete).  If you nominate yourself, please write a brief description of what you would like to see NABOKV-L become during the next few years.  If you nominate others, please briefly summarize their strengths for the position.  

We expect to name a pair of new co-editors, at least one of whom should be a Nabokov scholar of Russian literature (or, at least, fully fluent in Russian).  All nominees should have been  continuous members of the International Vladimir Nabokov Society for at least the last three years, including 2015.

Sincerely yours,

Stephen Blackwell and Susan Elizabeth Sweeney

Co-Editors, NABOKV-L
