We are currently collecting data regarding how organizational communicators measure the effectiveness of their communication outreach, common methods used in these endeavors and so forth. We invite practitioners and ask scholars to pass along and encourage their professional contacts to participate in this study. The survey takes 15-20 minutes to complete. Naturally, you can choose not to participate or stop at any time. There are no known risks involved with answering these questions. Your responses are anonymous and therefore confidential. Results will be available to participants once a report is created.

You may access the website by clicking the link, or by cutting and pasting the web address in your browser address window: http://www.onlineresearchlab.org/  Once you arrive at the site, select the first study option labeled Public Relations Professionals Study. 

We appreciate your consideration and thank you in advance for your participation.

24 July 2010 is the official launch date for Wiley Online Library, a new, state-of-the art web platform. The new service is built on the latest technology and designed with extensive input from the global scholarly community across the world and across the many subjects in which we publish. Featuring a clean and simple interface, the new platform will combine intuitive navigation, enhanced discoverability, expanded functionalities and a range of personalization options. 

99.97% of all journal back content has already been successfully transferred to Wiley Online Library and new content is now being uploaded to both Wiley InterScience and the new platform. Customers and researchers will receive ongoing information and support up to, during, and following the 24 July launch. Wiley Online Library will completely replace the Wiley InterScience website and all content and licenses will be transferred to the new site to enable seamless access for users and subscribers.

Journal home pages for all titles on Wiley Online Library will be improved and feature the option of customizable areas to share news, information, and events.

Following the initial release, there will be an ongoing program of development that will include many additional features and new opportunities for users to interact with the content. More information is available now at: www.wileyonlinelibrary.com/info, including a list of features, regularly updated FAQs, screenshots, online demos, and more details about the new website for all users. You can also sign up for alerts from this website to get updates on developments as they happen.

We will be contacting customers directly with information about the new platform, including how to ensure seamless access to your content on Wiley Online Library.

NOTICE

Effective 1 July 2010, all ICA journals accept only submissions that are formatted according to the Style Guide of the American Psychological Association, 6th edition (2009).
