Emerald website upgrade and Emerald Backfiles launch

Dear Emerald website user,

As part of our continuous efforts to enhance our products and services, Emerald is pleased to announce two significant and exciting enhancements to our content and website:

• The launch of Emerald Backfiles, the digitized archive of Emerald journal titles in business, management, library and information services, materials science, and engineering. More than 60,000 articles (some dating back to the late nineteenth century) are now in PDF format and available electronically for the first time

Customers who have purchased Emerald Backfiles in advance will gain access to these articles from Monday 17th March. To other Emerald subscribers and users, the content of Emerald Backfiles will be indicated by the letter “B” and you will have access to the abstracts.

For more information about Emerald Backfiles, please visit: http://www.emeraldinsight.com/info/products_services/emeraldbackfiles.jsp

• The launch of its new website with improved navigation tools, a more intuitive interface design and enhanced interest zones containing business and management resources

Deployment to the new improved website will start the week commencing 17th March and you will notice changes by the middle of the week.

We have taken all possible measures to ensure that this technical upgrade causes as little disruption as possible. Emerald subscribers will be able to browse, search and download articles as normal throughout the switch. However, we would like to notify all users that the functionality of the “My Profile” section may be affected during this period.

We apologize for any inconvenience you may encounter until the new website has been successfully implemented and we thank you in advance for your understanding.

Should you have any queries, concerns or comments, please contact support@emeraldinsight.com
