For immediate release:  INFORMS Announces 2010 Pricing

INFORMS is pleased to announce 2010 pricing for its 12 individual 
journal titles and Publications Suite package.

During the economic downturn, INFORMS continues to provide 
excellent value for the money.  INFORMS offers high-quality 
content while maintaining one of the least expensive 
cost-per-page figures among journals in its field. Our journal 
prices are some of the lowest in the industry, and for 2010, we 
maintain that tradition.  Furthermore, online access for current 
subscriptions includes full-text articles all the way back to and 
including 1998.  Previously, online full-text access began in 
2001 for current subscriptions.

The Publications Suite 
(http://www.informs.org/index.php?c=862&kat=Pubs+Suite) offers 
online-only access to all 11 INFORMS subscription journals plus 
our open access journal, INFORMS Transactions on Education -- at 
one low price. Our Publications Suite 
<http://www.informs.org/index.php?c=862&kat=Pubs+Suite>  is like 
paying for 9 journals and receiving three for free!

INFORMS has also recently introduced its Journals Archive 
http://journalsarchive.informs.org/ (1952-1997) -- historical 
operations research content spanning forty-five years. Libraries 
will find the low cost, highly valuable INFORMS Journals Archive 
an added benefit to their online journal collection.  Visit 
http://journalsarchive.informs.org/  for information about the 
INFORMS Journals Archive.

** New Initiatives from INFORMS**

In 2009, INFORMS signed an agreement with Portico, the electronic 
archiving product of Ithaka, Inc., to archive the association's 
12 journals. The agreement assures institutional subscribers that 
electronic copies of INFORMS journals will always be available, 
and that print copies will not be the only certain archival 
source. To read more about the Portico agreement, visit our 
website. http://www.informs.org/article.php?id=3D1554&p=3D1%7C.

INFORMS Journals, archive product, and advanced articles are 
assigned Digital Object Identifiers (DOI), and metadata is 
submitted to CrossRef for all INFORMS journal titles. Librarians 
may access the CrossRef database for DOI lookup and linking.
