With the acceptance of IJSLP into the Web of Science Journal Citation Index, we have seen an increase in the number of submissions to the journal. One of our topics of discussion was how to support authors and reviewers to ensure the publication of high quality research and writing. Later in the day we met with the publisher of all of informahealthcare society journals (via teleconference to Sweden). It was pleasing to hear from him that IJSLP has continued to grow in subscribers and the number of downloads. He said that this was not typical in the current economic climate.
