We are pleased to announce the posting, on the website of the American 
Malacological Society, of the following publication:

Eugene V. Coan, Alan R. Kabat & Richard E. Petit (2004), "2,400 Years of 
Malacology," online at http://erato.acnatsci.org/ams/publications/epubs.html.  

This publication is a comprehensive catalog of biographical and 
bibliographical papers on malacologists, conchologists, paleontologists, and others with an 
interest in mollusks.  At present, the catalog is over 600 pages and indexes 
over 5,000 individuals.  This catalog is a work in progress, and we will be 
posting updated versions periodically.  We encourage readers to explore and use 
this catalog, and we look forward to your comments.
