Journal Publishing

Australian Academic Press is dedicated to promoting scientific research through innovative journal publishing practices. We understand the rapidly evolving global online research environment and the need for researchers to access content quickly, easily and with minimum cost. We work with librarians and researchers to ensure our journal content is as visible as possible via traditional library subscriptions as well as the growing array of digital products and portals now available from every researcher’s desktop. We are also able to offer our clients the option of a hybrid open-access publication model to drive-up journal usage and improve both academic impact and article submission rates.

Australian Academic Press offers fast, industry-standard, commercial online hosting supported by US-based Atypon Systems — providers of electronic publishing software to leading international publishers such as Blackwell, Guilford, Annual Reviews and the CrossRef link resolution system. All Australian Academic Press online journals feature:

  • free access to tables of contents, abstracts, and sample issues
  • subscription, pay-per-view, or open access control to
  • full-text downloadable files
  • free Society member access
  • online editorial submission and management for editors and authors (available late 2007)
  • COUNTER-compliant e-user usage statistics
  • free contents alerting and RSS feeds
  • reference resolution linking via CrossRef
  • XML data linking to major search tools such as PsycINFO or Medline
  • automatic indexing via Google, Google Scholar,
    and Microsoft Windows Live Academic Search.

Australian Academic Press is known for its personal and innovative approach to the complex world of 21st century publishing. We have used digital technology extensively since 1987 and continue to be at the forefront of worldwide trends and advances in online information management.

Being an independent Australian-owned company, rather than the branch office of a publically traded foreign conglomerate, Australian Academic Press is able to adapt to new client requirements and implement changes rapidly to optimise the benefits of emerging digital opportunities. This means scholarly societies are provided with a stable ongoing business partner ­along with a cutting-edge journal publishing solution.

International exposure of Australian Academic Press journals is designed to enhance the reputation of those researchers who publish in a journal, as well as the learned society behind the journal. With support from global marketing partners we seek worldwide library and consortia sales for single subscriptions, multi-title-multi-site print or online licences, as well as inclusion in multiple online research products such as those from EBSCO Publishing or Australia’s RMIT Publishing.
