BioOne Announces 2012 Collections

August 30, 2011 - Washington, DC

BioOne (www.bioone.org) is pleased to welcome five titles and 
their respective nonprofit publishers to the 2012 BioOne 
Collections. In addition to new titles from China (Chinese 
Academy of Sciences), Finland (Finnish Zoological and Botanical 
Publishing Board), and South Africa (Natal Museum), we are 
delighted to welcome back the Society for the Study of 
Reproduction and their prestigious journal, Biology of 
Reproduction.

The Society for the Study of Reproduction was one of BioOne's 
inaugural participants in 2001, ceasing current participation in 
2006. With their re-entry into the collection, 2012 BioOne 
subscribers will receive access to all Biology of Reproduction 
content from 2000 through the present.

In 2012 BioOne will be home to 171 total publications, 120 of 
which (70%) are ISI-ranked. Furthermore, 60 of BioOne's titles 
(35%) have their current content available online exclusively 
through the BioOne platform, and 35 titles (21%) are based 
outside of the US. In addition to its two subscribed collections, 
BioOne is proud to offer twelve open access publications, freely 
available to all users.

We are delighted to add these five publications to BioOne in 
2012, enhancing the aggregation's value and reputation as a 
cost-effective, critical resource encompassing the biological, 
ecological, and environmental sciences. To learn more about 
BioOne, we invite you to read our newly published history, Ten 
Years of Sustainable Publishing, available for download at
