Dear Readers,

Happy New Year! 2008 is off to a fast and exciting start. We are putting the finishing touches on the current Jan/Feb issue. Look for it to arrive in your mailboxes at the end of January.

In the meantime, here are a few important deadline dates for upcoming editorial initiatives.

ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTING's
2008 Lightfair Market Issue Product Guide
Product Submission Deadline: March 3, 2008
Submission guidelines are available for download at www.archlighting.com.

March Industry Exchange Question
ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTING's March issue will devote its pages to the topic of daylighting. The Industry Exchange question is: Are we ready to require buildings in the United States to be daylit? And if so, what are the implications? To be considered for print, responses are due February 1, 2008. Responses can be sent directly to Elizabeth Donoff at edonoff@hanleywood.com.

I also encourage you to revisit A|L's Nov/Dec 2007 issue on lighting education and student work. The issue's content is entirely available online. Response has been phenomenal. Also in the issue are the final two installments of our series on Glass and Light written by Jim Benya.

So read on—excellence in lighting design awaits you.
