We receive several journals without wrappers and most are not damaged.
Rarely have I had to send in a claim for damaged journals.

Dear colleagues

Due to our own environmental concerns, and because some of our society
partners are requesting it, we're investigating the feasibility of
sending out some journals without wrappers. The cover of these
journals
would instead contain a sticker with address information which could
be
easily removed.

We understand that a number of journals, notably Nature and Science,
are
already sent out this way in the US?

We would appreciate answers, on or off list, to the following
questions:

1. Do you receive journals without wrappers?
2. If so, do they arrive damaged?
3. Do you/how often do you have to raise claims to the publisher for
damaged copies?

Many thanks in advance.

Kirsty
