Cover: The cover shows a cartoon description and two examples of a fiber‐welding process. Fibrous materials composed of cellulosic and protein polymers are transformed into extended hydrogen‐bonded networks by a tunable process. Loose fibers are partially solublized by an ionic‐liquid solvent and form a consolidated material upon removal of the solvent. Further details can be found in the article by L. M. Haverhals, W. M. Reichert, H. C. De Long, and P. C. Trulove * on page 425 .
