T
he arrival of the New Year is deeply connec-
ted to new resolutions, to commitments we
make for ourselves, and Biblion is no excep-
tion. We too want to embrace 2018 with the hope that
our goals will be achieved. Loyal to our commitment
towards Christian literature and towards our readers,
we want to see our magazine reach unexpected places
and audiences and motivate more people to read.
To make that happen, Biblion is launching a series of
measures and initiatives that will take place throughout
this year. On top of the magazine’s expansion, these
measures seek to maintain Biblion’s integrity and
autonomy as an independent magazine whose main
purpose is the promotion of literature in regard to the
reader’s intellectual and spiritual maturing.
Biblion also seeks to devote itself more to the
magazine’s means of dissemination, placing greater
emphasis on website, mobile app and social networks
starting this month of January. A substantial design
and layout overhaul is in progress, its goal being the
refinement of our graphic content’s quality. Lastly, we
want to see a larger share of guest collaboration and
add more voices to each magazine’s issue.
Of course, all this involves a compromise of time
and resources – and this becomes a situation where,
as they say, we need to take a step back in order to
take two steps forward. This means going back to the
magazine’s quarterly publishing format, a decision that
will ensure the magazine’s quality and contribute to its
constant improvement – two things that Biblion values
more than the number of issues published in a year.
As the reader can witness, we are committed to
make 2018 a memorable year, and we want you to join
us in this magnificent journey. Here are our sincere
wishes of health, peace and joy, and we hope you have
a great 2018!
