Dear Readers:
We very much hope that your access to ECRP has been useful. We are pleased to report that, as has been the trend in recent years, the journal received well over 1 million user visits during 2009.
We write now to ask for your help in keeping ECRP available and free to users around the world. Much like U.S. public radio and television, ECRP depends on individual, foundation, and corporate sponsorship to keep the journal free to all. We cannot accept advertising, so “every little bit” truly does help.
ECRP’s operating costs—editing, translation, correspondence, and Web design and maintenance—are approximately $35,000 per year. That amount allows us to continue to help improve practice in the field by facilitating communication among practitioners and researchers worldwide who are devoted to the well-being of young children.

The editors thank those who have sponsored Volume 11: corporate sponsors Teaching Strategies and Kaplan Early Learning, as well as the individuals who have contributed what they could to sustaining our efforts. We are also grateful to the Yew Chung Education Foundation, which, starting in 2009, supports a Chinese translation, making ECRP the only open-access peer-reviewed online journal in our field that is trilingual (in English, Spanish, and Chinese).
Our feedback from readers suggests that ECRP fills a unique niche in our field. Please help us continue to provide a special location where scholars, researchers, and practitioners can learn from one another. Contributions to ECRP are tax deductible! Donations to ECRP are managed by the University of Illinois Foundation (UIF). For instructions, see http://ecrp.uiuc.edu/donation.html.
Please make your contribution today!
