Bloomsbury Journals join Routledge

Bloomsbury Journals, comprising 25 titles in arts and humanities and 21 titles in law, is to join the Routledge publishing program.

The titles complement the existing subject scope at Routledge and extend opportunities for critical debate in new and emerging subject areas, the companies say, adding that they will work closely to ensure a smooth transition for all journals, partners and stakeholders involved. Institutional customers should direct 2015 subscription queries to acquisitionsenquires@tandf.co.uk and will be notified when their online access is to be transferred to Taylor & Francis Online.

Dr David Green, Taylor & Francis Group’s global journals publishing director, said: ‘We are delighted that these highly regarded journal portfolios are joining Routledge, where there is strong complementarity and investment in the areas of law, arts and humanities.’

Jonathan Glasspool, divisional managing director at Bloomsbury, added: ‘Bloomsbury continues to invest considerably in building its academic and professional book programme and growing its digital publishing programme in law and the humanities. Our academic journals will fit very well within the much larger Routledge journal portfolio’.
