  1. Building Journal Brands in China Case studies from the Royal Society of Chemistry Emma Wilson, Publisher 7th China Science Journal Forum Chongqing, China. October 2011

  2. Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) • Largest European organisation for advancing the chemical sciences • Founded 1841 • Professional body with a worldwide network of 47,000 members • “ To foster the chemical sciences by the dissemination of chemical knowledge …”

  3. RSC Publishing • RSC publishing activity dates back to 1841 • 32 Journals • Approx. 35,000 submissions (2010) • Approx. 13,500 articles published (2010) • Online journal archive (220,000 articles from 1841) • 90+ Books/year, ca. 400 titles in print • Almost 1,000 ebooks available • Databases, including ChemSpider • Magazines, including Chemistry World

  4. RSC Publishing Journals

  5. Portfolio Development • RSC Publishing “Brand” • (2007) • Rapid publication times • Great author service • “Trusted” journals

  9. RSC Publishing Strategy - China • Develop a leading presence in China • Expand editorial representation on journals (and books and magazines) • Hold significant events (conferences) • Recognise top researchers (RSC Awards) • Invite collaboration and partnerships at all levels

  10. RSC Publishing in China • Two RSC offices • ICCAS, Beijing • SIOC, Shanghai • China Publisher – Dr Daping Zhang • 5 year cooperation agreement with Chinese Chemical Society

  11. Chinese Board Members All of our journals have significant Chinese representation on Editorial Boards

Chinese Associate Editors Xinrong Zhang Analyst Xiu-Ping Yan Analytical Methods ChunliBai Nanoscale Dongyuan Zhao Journal of Materials Chemistry Yuliang Yang Polymer Chemistry Jianfang Wang Nanoscale Can Li ChemComm Shan Gao JAAS Song Gao CrystEngComm Guo-Xin Jin Dalton Transactions Mingqiang Zhang MedChemComm ... and growing significantly

  13. Raising our profile in China • Significant ongoing programme of Editorial visits • Chinese publisher • Journal Symposia • Electronic email campaign to Project 211 University faculty members • Chinese adverts in key Chinese publications

  14. RSC Publishing – 2010 Articles

  15. RSC Submissions – International trends Submissions – by country

  16. RSC prominence of research from China Lead authors, RSC journal articles

  17. ChemComm General Chemistry Journal Short articles, rapid publication times (60 days) • Editorial Board Appointments • Proactive commissioning activities • Editorial visits to China • ChemComm Symposia

  18. ChemComm– Growth
