We are the world’s leading publisher on behalf of academic and professional societies. – What this means: our society journals represent excellent quality and value. 2. The average prices of our journals are low. – What this means: the cost per use of our journals is low. 3. We are committed to growing the intellectual strength of our journals and to publishing the best research. – What this means: our list is continuously growing in size and quality. 4. Our list is both broad – covering a wide range of disciplines – and deep - we publish several of the top titles in many core subject areas. – What this means: our journals can meet the research needs of most institutions. 5. Our online developments and licensing terms ensure that libraries get the most use from their purchase. – What this means: the value library customers get from their purchase is high.
