Visitors to the Pediatrics Web site will notice a new feature: Early Release articles. Beginning this month, we will publish some articles online in advance of the issue in which the articles will ultimately appear. For example, articles that appear in the Early Release section of the Web site in October will ultimately be published in the November issue of the journal. Articles appearing in Early Release in November will ultimately be found in the December issue of Pediatrics. This new feature, combined with the journals recent adoption of a Web-based manuscript submission and review system, is designed to provide readers with more timely information and authors with faster publication.1
To start, articles from the Electronic Pages section of the journal will be released early whenever possible. Because articles in the Electronic Pages are only tied to a print issue by their abstract, this seemed a natural evolution.2 Although it may not be possible to publish all Electronic Pages
