Publisher Taylor & Francis, UK, has announced that Taylor & Francis Journals have been awarded International Publisher of the Year by the International Printers' Network (IPN). The award was given to the publisher in recognition of their pioneering use of digital printing technology to reduce their carbon footprint and improve delivery times to subscribers.
Rather than printing in one location and then shipping issues worldwide, Taylor & Francis have worked with their suppliers on a distributed print-on-demand model, splitting the print run across the Europe, the US and Asia for onward distribution to local subscribers.
The award was presented at Taylor & Francis UK offices by David Hobbs of Hobbs the Printers, and Tad Parker from Odyssey Press to Ian Bannerman, Managing Director of Taylor & Francis Journals.
