News from MIT Press Journals 2011 Pricing Available 2011 Pricing from MIT Press Journals is now available, with an average price increase of 2.5% from 2010. In this difficult economic climate, with budget cuts deeply affecting libraries, The MIT Press realizes the importance of keeping journals affordable and strives to keep pricing as low as possible. While the slight pricing increase is necessary to cover current operating costs, the Press continues to work towards keeping prices low, with the goal of disseminating its materials as widely as possible. Please follow the link to find a full listing of 2011 Prices from MIT Press Journals: http://www.mitpressjournals.org/userimages/ContentEditor/1277324163002/pricelist.pdf QJE and JEEA to Depart Two economic journals from the MIT Press collection will depart in 2011: The Quarterly Journal of Economics will move to Oxford University Press, and Journal of the European Economic Association will move to Wiley-Blackwell. While the loss of these publications is not without impact, the MIT Press Journals Economics publishing program remains highly robust, with strong offerings in economics such as The Review of Economics and Statistics, as well as Asian Economic Papers. The MIT Press has valued the opportunity to publish both QJE and JEEA during their tenure at the Press. For information on 2011 renewals please contact the respective new publishers for each journal. World Policy Journal will also be leaving the MIT Press for a yet to be determined publisher in 2011. Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience moving to Online-Only in 2011 Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, the leading publication in the mind sciences, will become online-only with Volume 23, starting in January 2011. Each issue will be published exclusively in PDF, PDF Plus, and full-text HTML formats. JOCN will continue to feature the same, fully illustrated color format and offer access to the entire online archive with a current subscription. While print issues of the journal will no longer be published after January, individual print back issues will still be available for purchase from The MIT Press. JOCN will of course continue to publish interdisciplinary work of the highest standards covering all aspects of neuroscience and brain-behavior interaction, in a highly-accessible online format.
