    COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS TO PUBLISH THE JOURNAL OF ELECTRONIC PUBLISHING
    Newly Revamped Journal to Publish Again in Spring

    The Journal of Electronic Publishing and Columbia University Press
    announce with pleasure their new partnership. With the release of the
    Spring 2003 issue, The Journal of Electronic Publishing will be published
    by Columbia University Press and will be re-launched with a new design,
    augmented content, enhanced search capabilities, and a new home address on
    the Columbia University Press Web site. Publication of JEP will be on a
    brief hiatus until spring.

    The University of Michigan Press published JEP since its inception in
    1995. The University of Michigan Press and Columbia University Press have
    agreed that all archives of the journal will be moved to Columbia, and
    calls to the old URL addresses will be automatically redirected to JEP's
    new home. In partnership with Columbia, JEP can reach a far wider
    audience, including many of the subscribers to CUP's renowned electronic
    publications. William Strachan, director of CUP said, "This move comes
    just as we ready the publication of The Columbia Guide to Digital
    Publishing. Columbia's staff and its committee of top experts in the field
    of digital publishing will now be available to work with the members of
    the JEP staff to strengthen JEP's position as the definitive journal in
    the field."

    The Journal of Electronic Publishing has been published since January,
    1995. It currently delivers three issues a year, in April, August, and
    December. Judith Axler Turner and Eve Trager, who both joined the journal
    in 1997, will continue in their respective positions of editor and
    managing editor. JEP is available by free subscription, and has 1,700
    subscribers and thousands more readers, mostly in the publishing industry,
    libraries, and the academy. Readers have access to close to 200 articles
    written by industry professionals in library science, private publishing,
    and academic presses.
