Academic publisher Maney Publishing, UK, has announced that the Midwest Archaeological Conference Inc. (MAC) will transfer publication of Midcontinental Journal of Archaeology to Maney from 2014. The journal publishes original papers on the archaeology of the region between the Appalachian Mountains and the Great Plains, from the Boreal Forests to the Gulf of Mexico, and other closely related subjects.
The journal will be made available online with a 10 year back archive, as well as in print for the benefit of subscribers and members of MAC. This publication will use Editorial Manager, the online system for article submission and peer-review, enabling contributors, reviewers and the editorial team to track and respond to the progress of articles with greater ease.
Maney will increase the number of pages published and frequency will increase from two to three issues per year. The journal's print presentation will be modernised and enhanced with colour illustrations.
