The Society for New Communications Research is pleased to announce that the first issue of the Journal of New Communications Research is now available. In addition to recapping the research projects that the SNCR has undertaken during our first year, this inaugural publication also includes original in-depth research, articles and commentary by many of our research fellows and other notable contributors from around the world. The print edition is available for $60. A .pdf is available for $52.69. We will also soon be posting the articles in a wiki and we encourage subscribers’ participation, comments, questions and any related or updated research. This will create a unique living repository of research. In addition, the Society for New Communications Research is now seeking submissions for the second issue of the JNCR, which will be published in Spring 2007. The deadline for submissions has been extended to January 12, 2007. |
