Abstract: This digital revolution will take us from one universe to another, from paper dictionaries to digital dictionaries. The two editors responsible for this special issue, speaking from a professional standpoint of course, belong to one or the other of these universes. Monique C. Cormier specializes in historical lexicography: her medium is paper, at least for original versions. Terminology specialist Marie-Claude L'Homme deals primarily with digital media. We have extensive experience with both paper and digital media and agree on the need to understand our current intermediate state. We thus venture without regret and without fear.
