Academic publisher Maney Publishing, UK, has announced a publishing partnership with the International Institute for the Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works (IIC). Under the deal, Maney will publish Studies in Conservation, the IIC's flagship quarterly journal from 2012. For the first time, the journal will be published online (via IngentaConnect) as well as in full colour in print.
Studies in Conservation provides researchers and cultural heritage practitioners with novel results and significant thinking. Together with the recently incorporated Reviews in Conservation, published annually in print only by IIC 2000–10, the journal covers advances in conservation practice, novel methods of treatment, preventative conservation, issues of collection care, conservation history and ethics, examination methods for works of art, new research in the analysis of materials or mechanisms of deterioration, and conservation issues in display and storage.
In coming years Maney will digitise and make available to both IIC members and institutional subscribers the entire published archive of Studies and Reviews, with improved online search facilities.
IIC also publishes a long running and successful series of biennial conference proceedings that shall in future be integrated within the Journal to facilitate online access. News in Conservation, IIC's full-colour newspaper reporting opinion, stories, features, interviews and other articles as well as IIC Council and regional group news, and conference listings will be distributed quarterly alongside Studies.
