Newswise — BALTIMORE, Md. -- The Journal of Rehabilitation Research and Development (JRRD) is participating in a multi-city tour of China this summer as part of The Charlesworth Group’s Academic Journal Exhibition 2012. The scholarly journals tour of China will visit four major cities—Wuhan, Shanghai and Shenzhen—and will take part in the Beijing International Book Fair (BIBF)—Overseas Periodical Show. The road show will promote journals and databases from international publishers to scholars and librarians in mainland China from June to September 2012.
These cities are all well known for their history, culture and educational resources, with the exhibitions located in renowned university libraries or in public libraries. Spending a week in each city, the tour will enable publishers to introduce their academic content to an audience of prominent academics and key librarians invited with complimentary admission. The tour is hosted by The China National Publications Import & Export Corporation, which also will conduct educational seminars and allow opportunities for publisher-sponsored seminars on topics including journal publishing, e-journal access and electronic archiving.
“We’re pleased to be included as part of this international tour,” said JRRD Editor, Stacieann Yuhasz, PhD. “JRRD reaches Veterans and their caregivers throughout the United States who want to know about what is happening in rehabilitation research, as well as a highly-educated and informed audience internationally. There is a significant amount of research underway in mainland China that our audiences could definitely benefit from learning more about as well as researchers who would benefit from future publication in JRRD.” Additional information about the tour and other participants is available at http://periodical.cnpeak.com/AJE-EN/exhibitor3.asp.
