In 1908, the American Jewish Committee (AJC) assumed responsibility for compilation and editing while JPS remained the publisher.
The book is published in cooperation with the Berman Jewish DataBank[1] and the Association for the Social Scientific Study of Jewry.
[5] Previous editors included: Cyrus Adler, Maurice Basseches, Herman Bernstein, Morris Fine, Herbert Friedenwald, H.G.
[citation needed] Publication of the American Jewish Year Book by the AJC ceased with the 2008 volume, a victim of both the economic slowdown of 2008 and changes in the publishing industry.
The American Jewish Year Book started publishing again in 2012, in both hard copy and on the Internet, as a Springer publication.
