World Policy Journal joins Duke University Press
Duke University Press and World Policy Journal are pleased to announce a new publishing partnership beginning in 2016. World Policy Journal is the flagship publication of the World Policy Institute. For over thirty years WPJ has been home to both distinguished and emerging thinkers from around the globe.
The articles and analyses in World Policy Journal offer strong points of view that transcend the foreign-versus-domestic policy divide, reflecting the institute's global perspective. World Policy Journal covers the most pressing issues in global affairs, injecting new ideas into global debates and making innovative policy recommendations. Essays and investigations consider such topics as geopolitical and economic change; global security; regional conflict; political controversy; issues of immigration, exile, and ethnicity; and cultural and social change.
For more information about the journal, visit dukeupress.edu/world-policy-journal.

Outsell's IM Benchmarking Survey - please note revised deadline of 30th November
*With apologies for cross-posting, and a big thank you to everyone who has contributed so far*
Over the past several years, Outsell's IM Benchmarking Survey results show spending on e-books to be almost flat, despite the proliferation of platforms and formats, and the same was predicted for 2015. How has this situation changed in 2015/16? How does your library compare? This is just a reminder that you can find out by participating in Outsell's 2015 survey for library leaders and managers, which is now live!
In return for your participation, you will instantly receive a free 12-page data report showing how your responses compare to both your peer group, and the library community as a whole.
You can find the survey at: http://outsell.interceptsurveys.com/IMB
The survey should take around 20 minutes of your time to complete (you can pause it and return at will), and all information will be kept strictly confidential. We know many of you have been kindly taking the time to consult with colleagues about your responses, and to review the questionnaire carefully. Thus, we have revised the deadline to Monday 30th November, 2015.
Questions? Need a copy of the questionnaire? Contact Leonie Nicholas, Affiliate Analyst, Outsell, Inc., at lnicholas@outsellinc.com.
Thanks for your kind participation, and to everyone who has contributed so far.
With kind regards
Leonie
