In addition to information about important changes to diagnostic criteria for neurodevelopmental disorders and an overview of broad conceptual and organizational changes to *DSM-5*, a new series in *Psychiatric News*—launched last Friday—also has links to fact sheets and video interviews of experts discussing changes to the manual. These include Susan Swedo, M.D., chair of the Work Group on Neurodevelopmental Disorders, who discusses autism spectrum disorder and specific learning disorder, and APA President Dilip Jeste, M.D., and *DSM-5* Task Force Chair David Kupfer, M.D., who discusses the overall development of *DSM-5*.

The first articles in the *Psychiatric News* series are posted [here](http://psychnews.psychiatryonline.org/newsArticle.aspx?articleid=1558423) and [here](http://psychnews.psychiatryonline.org/newsArticle.aspx?articleid=1558424). The supplementary materials and videos can be accessed at [www.psychiatry.org/dsm5](http://www.psychiatry.org/dsm5).

*DSM-5*, which will be published in May and available for purchase at APA’s 2013 annual meeting in San Francisco, can be [preordered](http://www.appi.org/Pages/DSM.aspx) now along with a suite of complementary publications. The latter include the *DSM-5 Desk Reference* and the *Pocket Guide to DSM-5 Diagnostic Exam*, both available in May; the *DSM-5 Guidebook* and *DSM-5 Test Questions*, available in August this year; and *DSM-5* *Clinical Cases,* *DSM-5* *Study Guide,* and the *Handbook of Differential Diagnoses,* which will be available in September.
