Dear Editors 

As indicated before, ASSAf is in the process of rolling out Open Journal Systems (OJS) for the hosting of SciELO SA journals In need of a web site and online journal management system. These journals will be digitally preserved via Portico. The following two journals are part of the pilot, and a third one will be following soon: 

• South African Crime Quarterly
