Agenda Promoting physics, supporting physicists. What does IOP Publishing do? How eIFL opened up electronic access to
researchers in Lithuania. Publishing: the global picture. Publishing: IOP Publishing statistics. What happens to your paper during
publication? The importance of partner publishing. What’s next from IOP Publishing?
Promoting physics, supporting physicists The Institute of Physics is a scientific
membership organisation that promotes the opportunities made possible through physics.
Over 34,000 members worldwide. 44 subject groups and six professional
groups. Supporting education. Advising government and industry. Raising awareness.
Our mission: Is to advance physics in order to further
understanding of the physical world and its application for social and economic benefit;
To promote interest and participation in physics across society as a whole;
To support and involve physicists throughout their education and careers;

IOP Publishing, brief description: Over 50 journals; 10 community websites; Six magazines including Physics World; 21 international publishing partners including
Cern, IAEA and AAS; Broad interdisciplinary coverage reflecting
the nature of scientific research and application, from topics as varied as astronomy, mathematics, the biosciences and, of course, physics.
eIFL in Lithuania: Most of IOP titles available via eIFL; Hugely reduced costs; Similar level of access as researchers in “top
class” institutions (such as MIT or Cambridge);
Demand for electronic journals rapidly growing much faster in the last couple of years;
“Turnaways” also increasing.

Publishing: the global picture: Research output on the increase, more and
more papers published every year (3% growth year on year);
Some “new” countries such as China and India making big impact;
Some previously influential countries losing their power;
Learned societies playing an active part in publishing in general, especially in Science Technology and Medical (STM) publishing.
What happens to your paper? How do we process your research paper? How long does it take? What does a publisher do when a paper gets
published?
What happens to your paper? Marketing Dedicated marketing team to help promote the work
of our authors. Work closely with authors to promote their papers
(press releases, recommended reader campaigns, inclusion in journal highlight campaigns, promotion at exhibitions etc.)
General services to improve visibility and accessibility of papers including IOP Select, This months papers, RSS and e-mail alerts etc.
Marketing campaigns help improve citation performance, promote the work of the author and the science.
Ensure our journals are available through services like EIFL and INASP.
Building global partnerships Partner publishing is one way we help
support the global physics community. Provide our expertise to decrease publication
times, increase visibility and citations. The Publisher is a “contractor”, no change in
ownership. Example of how partnership publishing can
work: Chinese Physical Society partnership.
What’s next from IOP Publishing? IOPscience (www.iopscience.iop.org) Over 300,000 articles, thousands of subject
classifications; Content from 1874 to the present day; Over 470,000 E-prints; Innovative searching and filtering across
journal titles and subjects; Links to related articles, references and
citations; RSS feeds, tag clouds and social
bookmarking. And more…
