Abstract
The Bulletin of the Australian Association of Occupational Therapists published the first “official” volume and issue of what would become the Australian Occupational Therapy Journal in July–August–September, 1952. This first issue commences with the following Editorial (1952): "Your Bulletin comes to you in a slightly different form this issue, we trust that you will approve the change, and will write expressing your opinions … Some difficulty has been experienced in the past forming an Editorial Board but we are now managing to carry on … we do ask all members to develope [sic] a more positive attitude towards the Bulletin, it is your official journal and can only be kept alive and interesting by your full co‐operation. (p. 3)" When I read this, I am firstly curious to learn about the background to the Editorial, but I am mostly reminded that the business, and success, of the Australian Occupational Therapy Journal is firstly and foremostly driven for, and by, you—the membership and readership. You are our most important stakeholders.
