The International Wood Products Journal is a quarterly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering all aspects of wood science, engineering, and technology. It is currently published by Sage Journals on behalf of the Wood Technology Society ( Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining) and the editor-in-chief is Gervais Sawyer and the associate editor is Carmen-Mihaela Popescu.
History
The journal was established in 1958 as the Journal of the Institute of Wood Science, [1] [2] and was published in London by the Institute of Wood Science, the predecessor of the Wood Technology Society. [3]
The first editor of the journal was Bernard Alwyn Jay, Deputy Director of the Timber Development Association (with later became TRADA [4]), until he died in 1961. [5] By then the journal was considered to be one of the leading publications of its kind, with subscribers in 31 countries including USA, China, India and Russia. [6]
The Institute of Wood Science merged into the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining in 2009, and as a consequence the journal was renamed, obtaining its current name in 2010. At the same time it came to be published by Maney Publishing. [7] Maney was acquired by Taylor & Francis in 2015. [8] From 2024 the publisher is Sage, following a 2023 agreement with the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining for Sage to take over publication of the journals of the institute. [9]
