From its first volume in 1960, British Poultry Science has been a leading international journal for poultry scientists and advisers to the poultry industry throughout the world.Over 60% of the independently refereed papers published originate outside the UK. Most typically they report the results of biological studies with an experimental approach which either make an original contribution to fundamental science or are of obvious application to the industry. Subjects which are covered include: anatomy, embryology, biochemistry, biophysics, physiology, reproduction and genetics, behaviour, microbiology, endocrinology, nutrition, environmental science, food science, feeding stuffs and feeding, management and housing welfare, breeding, hatching, poultry meat and egg yields and quality.Papers that adopt a modelling approach or describe the scientific background to new equipment or apparatus directly relevant to the industry are also published. The journal also features rapid publication of Short Communications. Summaries of papers presented at the Spring Meeting of the UK Branch of the WPSA are now published in British Poultry Abstracts.

Since 1931, Brittonia, assuming the broadest possible definition of the field of systematic botany, has been an important outlet for the publication of original research articles on anatomy, botanical history, chemotaxonomy, morphology, paleobotany, phylogenetic systematics, taxonomy, and phytogeography. Each issue contains articles by the staff of The New York Botanical Garden and outside contributors, book reviews, and announcements.

At the moment, the international shipbuilding market is extremely dynamic and unpredictable, so that the needs for certain types of ships (as well as their prices) are changing dramatically from one day to the next. This requires from the shipbuilders to follow the conditions on the shipbuilding market continuously, to anticipate the changes, and to make tremendous efforts in adjusting their production capacities to the anticipated changes. Such requirements can be satisfied only by a shipbuilding industry that has a flexible and dynamic management, a competent team of experts, a modern technology, a good cooperation with the domestic equipment and outfitting industry, and a strong financial backing by the state and by the powerful commercial banking institutions.

Brontë Studies is the only journal solely dedicated to research on the Brontë family. Published continuously since 1895, it aims to encourage further study and research on all matters relating to the Brontë family, their background and writings, and their place in literary and cultural history. Original, peer-reviewed articles are published as well as papers delivered at conferences, notes on matters of interest, short notices reporting research activities and correspondence arising from items previously published in the journal. The journal also provides an official record of the Brontë Society and reports new accessions to the Brontë Parsonage Museum and its research library.
