Another Milestone in the Books for LCGC
LCGC North America
This month marks another major milestone for LCGC: 35 years of successfully publishing “solutions for separation scientists.” I would be remiss if I did not thank you, our readers, as well as the tireless staff that work so hard to bring you this publication every month. In kind, I would also like to thank our columnists for their helpful contributions and willingness to share their expertise with our audience. Our advertisers also deserve a round of applause for supporting our business and counting on us to deliver successful products across the industry.

In the past 35 years, we have seen publishing change quite a bit-from the age of print-only products to the advances of digital media. LCGC has been along for the entire ride and continues to offer innovative products such as our e-learning platform ChromAcademy, e-books, and special video projects on relevant topics throughout the year. No matter what the format, however, from our webcasts and special print supplements to our sponsored content and newsletters we always strive to provide trusted and valuable information to our audience. And even though digital formats continue to gain importance, print is still the favored medium of many readers, so we are innovating there too-which is why we are pleased to be launching the redesign of our print publication in this issue. We will also be launching a revamped website in the coming months-all with the audience in mind!
Being associated with LCGC for the past 25 years has been a wonderful experience, and I’ve seen the tremendous growth and strength in our business firsthand. My personal commitment has always been to keep LCGC as a leader at the forefront of analytical science. I think our record speaks for itself in doing so-see you at the next LCGC mile-marker!
