The Front Cover shows a vintage style poster advertising cyanoborates and a sheet highlighting molecular structures of selected cyanoborate anions. Cyanoborate anions have become an important class of building blocks for low‐viscosity ionic liquids, metal salts, and salts with reactive cations such as the oxonium ion. The drawer cabinet emphasizes the availability of various cyanoborate anions and their building block nature. More information on the synthesis of cyanoborates and their applications can be found in the Minireview by N. V. Ignat'ev and M. Finze.
