June 20, 2017 – Briarcliff Manor, NY and Santa Clara, CA – The Academy of Management (AOM), the preeminent global professional association for management and organization scholars, announces the selection of Atypon, the largest technology company in the scholarly publishing industry, to host all Academy of Management journals content on the Literatum online publishing platform. In addition to articles, AOM content includes multimedia capabilities and conference proceedings.
Since their flagship journal launch in 1958, the Academy of Management publications have been an invaluable resource to members, authors and editors, institutional library customers and the many diverse audiences they serve. The Academy’s six journals—Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, Academy of Management Perspectives, Academy of Management Learning and Education, Academy of Management Annals, and Academy of Management Discoveries—will be launching on the Literatum platform in late spring, 2018.
“We look forward to migrating the AOM journals to Atypon,” said John Pescatore, the Academy of Management’s Director of Publications. “The platform’s flexibility and reliability, and Atypon’s commitment to innovative, easy-to-use software will help the Academy better serve the needs of our members and extensive readership well into the future.”
