Please be aware that it can get even more complicated. T&F has
now consolidated their various imprints under just three,
Taylor & Francis (ST), Routledge (SSH) and Informa Healthcare (M)
but previously they had Bios, Brunner-Routledge, Carfax, CRC Press,
Frank Cass, Gordon & Breach, Marcel Dekker, Martin Dunitz,
Parthenon Publishing, Psychology Press, Routledge, Spon, Swets
& Zeitlinger, Taylor Graham, Triangle, and Lawrence Erlbaum. In
order to be on the safe side, I would at least look out for the major
of these. Just filter those excel lists and scan through the list of
publishers.
By the way, a few of you probably may have noticed the vanishing
of the M in the STM collection last weekend when the T&F/Informa
website was under maintenance. It's gone (look at their website
with collections info), although existing contracts will be honored.
Best regards,
Bernd-Christoph
