title list for 2011.

Sponsored by the National Science Council of the Republic of 
China (Taiwan), EASTS aims to bring East Asian and Western 
science and technology studies scholars and communities together 
by publishing research on how society and culture interact with 
science, technology, and medicine. The journal is available in 
print, print-plus-electronic, and electronic-only formats.

Published four times a year, EASTS will be included in the e-Duke 
Journals Scholarly Collections, both Standard and Expanded 
options, at no additional cost to subscribers. It will also be

MUSE.

EASTS joins the minnesota review, Genre, and the online-only 
journal Limnology and Oceanography: Fluids and Environments as 
new additions to Duke's list for 2011.

Duke University Press is also pleased to announce that its online 
journals can now be accessed using Shibboleth. Currently, the 
press supports access management federations in the United 
Kingdom, France, and Germany. Others may be added, depending on 
interest from subscribing libraries.

"We are always looking for ways to help users access our content 
more easily, and partnering with Shibboleth will allow us to be 
more accessible to libraries and their patrons." To enable
