The New England Quarterly is now being published by The MIT Press. At The MIT Press Journals website (www.mitpressjournals.org), current subscribers may access a fully-searchable digital version of their print subscriptions; at the same site, new readers may purchase subscriptions, single essays from our current issue(s), or (through JSTOR) essays from our seventy-seven-year archive.
The MIT Press was founded in 1926, two years before NEQ first appeared; its journals division was launched in 1969. The press currently hosts thirty-four journals, a substantial number of which focus on the humanities and social sciences. With over twenty employees, the journals division offers us expertise in production, marketing, permissions and subsidiary rights, subscriptions fulfillment, and customer service. Most important, in today's dynamic publishing environment, these dedicated professionals are constantly searching for the best means of delivering scholarship to an audience committed to receiving it.
NEQ's mission is just as it was in 1928: to make the best that is being written about New England's history, in its myriad forms, available to a worldwide audience. With The MIT Press as its publisher, NEQ can now march confidently into the twenty-first century while its authors concentrate on exploring the past.
