Sažetak
The CLA News, a professional bulletin of the Croatian Library Association, was established in 1994 by Aleksandra Horvat, the president of the CLA at that time, with the goal to inform the library professionals about the work of the CLA and to publish the news from the domestic and international librarianship. The bulletin is published 3 to 4 times a year and every issue contains articles about the work of the individual CLA members, the work of the CLA professional boards, reports or short notices on conferences and other events organized by the CLA, but also reports on other important events and professional issues regarding national librarians' community. The most important duties of the CLA News Editorial Board are forming and implementing editorial policies, making decisions on the form and content of the bulletin, and keeping contacts with the authors to motivate them to write articles and reports. The aim of this paper is to present the report about the work of the CLA News Editorial Board between 2012 and 2014. After a short overview of the history of the bulletin, the paper focuses on the achievements of the former Editorial Board in communication with the authors, formal and content-wise changes, and activities related to the promotion of the bulletin. The results of the survey conducted among the readers from the beginning of July till the end of September 2014 and the number of users who accessed the online edition of the CLA News in the same period are also presented. In the conclusion the authors propose the guidelines for the further development of the bulletin and the essential prerequisites necessary for its further improvement.
