Academic publisher SAGE has announced two new society partnerships to publish the Scandinavian Journal of Public Health (SJPH) and the Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health (APJPH), beginning in 2008.
A quarterly publication, APJPH will be published in association with the Asia-Pacific Academic Consortium for Public Health. The journal publishes original articles on public health issues, including implications for practical applications to professional education and services for public health and primary healthcare in the Asia-Pacific region. The Consortium's member institutions include some of the largest and most influential schools of public health in the Asia-Pacific region.
Published eight times a year, SJPH is the official publication of the Associations of Public Health in Nordic Regions, comprising leading public health organisations in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. The journal seeks to provide a forum for Nordic as well as international public health research and policy. Legislation in most countries in the Nordic region allows researchers to carry out studies linking various population registers by means of individual personal identification numbers. This provides a unique source of data which is invaluable for the public health community and SJPH aims to publish the research that results from this.
The full-text for both journals is available via the SAGE Journals Online platform. Institutional subscriptions for the journals include Combined (Print and E-access), E-access, or Print Only options.
Publishing over 485 journals SAGE has seen significant growth in its STM portfolio, with over 115 titles in health sciences, and 30 specifically in the fields of public health and nursing. SAGE's expanding STM journal portfolio is complemented by an authoritative collection of reference works on important health issues, including the forthcoming Encyclopedia of Global Health and Encyclopedia of Obesity.
