  • A NEW DAY DAWNING, A NEW PUBLISHER for CJC

    2022-05-11

    CJC is pleased to announce that it has signed a contract with the University of Toronto Press, Journals Division to publish CJC. We are confident that this new publishing arrangement will ease our publishing process and will increase our already substantial readership worldwide. We will soon begin a formal transition and this may lead to a few glitches. A temporary one has already emerged. The DOIs for the most recent issue (47.2) are not working as of May 10, 2022. We hope to have them fixed soon.
