April 2008: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

As of 1st April 2008, the journals operation of Multilingual Matters Ltd has been transferred to the Taylor & Francis Group (part of Informa UK Ltd), and the journals will henceforth be published under their Routledge imprint. The main reason for this is so that we can focus our time and resources on the development of our rapidly expanding book publication programme in both applied linguistics and tourism studies.

Book publishing activities have been transferred to a new company, Channel View Publications Ltd, still owned by Mike, Marjukka and Tommi Grover, and will carry on much as before. We will continue to use the name ‘Multilingual Matters’ as the imprint for our language-related titles, as well of course continuing to use ‘Channel View Publications’ for the tourism-related ones.

We are working with Routledge to ensure that the transfer of the journals involves the very minimum of disruption to everyone concerned. Currently article submission and subscription processes remain unchanged.
