Transformation of NRC Research Press to the private sector
Sign up for our e-bulletin service to receive e-mail alerts regarding the NRC Research Press transition
Since January 2002, NRC Research Press has published the Journal of Environmental Engineering and Science. During the seven-year history of the journal, the co-editors, Dr. Donald S. Mavinic and Dr. Daniel W. Smith, built a high-quality journal that was well respected by its community of researchers in Canada and around the world. Sales of subscriptions have unfortunately been very disappointing and are not forecast to improve in future. The NRC Research Press is a cost-recovery program within the National Research Council of Canada and has supported and financially subsidized the publishing of this journal for the last seven years. At this time, after much effort, NRC Research Press has regrettably determined that it no longer has the resources to support the continuing publication of this journal. The funds currently used to subsidize this journal will continue to support the development and enhancement of scholarly publishing services in Canada. Please note that papers that have already been accepted for publication in the Journal of Environmental Engineering and Science will be published in a special section at the back of the Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, also published by NRC Research Press. Environmental engineering papers continue to be accepted within the Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering. The last issues of the Journal of Environmental Engineering and Science will be November 2008 and a supplement to the 2008 volume. Back issues of the journal will remain available on the current Web site to past subscribers and all Canadians through the gracious support of the Depository Services Program of Canada.
