The journal, Politics & Gender, published by Cambridge University Press on

science, including comparative politics, international relations, political
theory, and U.S. politics.

Published by the Cambridge University Press Americas division, Politics &
Gender also publishes studies that address fundamental questions in
politics and political science from the perspective of gender difference,
as well as those that interrogate and challenge standard analytical
categories and conventional methodologies.

Politics & Gender will now be indexed and abstracted in these Thomson
Reuters’ services:

Cambridge Journals’ Americas Marketing Manager, Susan Soule, said: “We are
delighted that Politics & Gender is to be included in these prestigious

service to the scientific and scholarly research community.”

Kim L. Fridkin, President of the Women and Politics Research Section,
commented: “The inclusion of Politics & Gender in these important citation
services signifies that this young journal is being recognized as an
important source of scholarship in a relatively short period of time”.

Politics & Gender is currently abstracted and indexed by CSA Worldwide

Sciences and Pollution Management; International Bibliography of the Social
Sciences; SCOPUS Feminist Periodicals Online; International Political

4) Title change for "The Current Digest of the Post-Soviet Press"

Subject :  Title change for "The Current Digest of the Post-Soviet Press"
From:  Carolyn Dennell <carolyn.fennell@eastview.com>
Date:  Feb. 17 2011

Starting with Issue No. 3, Vol. 63 (2011), "The Current Digest of the Post-Soviet Press" (ISSN 1067-7542) will now be titled "The Current Digest of the Russian Press".  

This change in title was prompted by the dated nature of the term "post-Soviet" in today's world. It also serves as a more accurate description of the content of the journal, which selects and translates articles exclusively from major Russian news sources.

The change in title will not affect our methodology concerning article selection, nor our careful approach to translation and editing. Rest assured that "The Current Digest of the Russian Press" will continue to publish high-quality translations of pertinent articles from the Russian press on events occurring in Russia, the CIS, Europe, the US, and the world over. 

Content from "The Current Digest of the Russian Press" will continue to be updated electronically and subscribers will have the same access to current year issues and back issues. 

We are excited about the new name and this newest chapter in the history of The Current Digest. 

New ISSN numbers: 
The Current Digest of the Russian Press (print) ISSN 2159-3612
The Current Digest of the Russian Press (online) ISSN 2159-3639

Update on Materials Research Society (MRS) Publications -- Now Hosted on
CJO

As previously announced, MRS journals are now being hosted on Cambridge
Journals Online (CJO). Here is an updated schedule for the migration of
back volumes, as well as when new content will become available.

1. MRS Bulletin: The January 2011 issue (Volume 36, Number 1) is available
online now at http://journals.cambridge.org/mrs. Please note that there are
no FirstView articles for this title; articles are published online in
complete issues. All available back volumes of this title are now also on
CJO.

SPECIAL NOTE—2011 subscriptions to MRS Bulletin include full-text access to
all issues of the Bulletin, from March 2000 to the current issue.

2. Journal of Materials Research: The first two 2011 issues, Volume 26:
Numbers 1 and 2, are now available online. In addition, more 2011 JMR
content is available on CJO, as FirstView articles, at
http://journals.cambridge.org/jmr. Most of the JMR archives are also now
available online and the remainder will be added shortly.

SPECIAL NOTE—2011 subscriptions to JMR include full-text access to all JMR
issues from the Journal’s inception in January 1986 to the current issue.

3. MRS Online Proceedings Library: OPL content has now been migrated to CJO
at http://journals.cambridge.org/opl. More than half of the available
digital volumes, including some 2010 conference proceedings, can now be
accessed on our platform. Additional content is being added daily with the
goal of completing the transfer of all available back volumes by the end of
February.

SPECIAL NOTE—2011 subscriptions to the OPL include over 68,000
papers—proceedings published from Volume 1 to the present.

For our library and institutional customers: We are aware that many of you
maintain a page or pages on your own servers that act as portals to the OPL
content. To assist you in updating your links, we have compiled this
spreadsheet (direct link: http://www.mrs.org/opl-conversion) containing old
addresses for each individual volume and their corresponding new locations
on the CJO site. In addition, if you are in need of a paper over the next
two weeks that is not yet posted on CJO, please contact Anita Miller at
amiller@mrs.org and she will see that the document is sent to you.

The Materials Research Society and Cambridge University Press appreciate
your patience while we complete the transfer process. If you have any
questions please contact Cambridge.

USJournals@cambridge.org
