Journals
Societies and Associations
Sage was founded in 1965 by Sara Miller McCune to support the dissemination of usable knowledge by publishing innovative and high-quality research and teaching content. Today, we publish over 1000 journals from over 500 learned societies globally: society publishing is at the heart of what we do.
Sage is an independent, family owned company, and an estate plan has been put in place to ensure this continues after the lifetime of our founder. We cannot be subject to merger or acquisition by one of the publishing monoliths, which guarantees stability for our partners and preserves our vision of publishing for the future.
We also pride ourselves on providing our partners with the optimal financial return, which is made possible by Sage's global sales and marketing reach and our reputation of publishing the highest quality 'must have' content.
We are experts in journals publishing with over 50 years' experience in driving quality content, citations and rankings, whilst your editorial team will retain complete independence over content decisions. Sage has a proven track record in gaining Impact Factors for journals and increasing their rankings. Sage recruits and retains passionate and experienced publishing staff, and the high quality of the published journal, whether in print or online, is fundamental to Sage.

Our Higher Education / Books Acquisitions Editors
K-12 Books - Corwin Press
Corwin Press publishes leading-edge books for practicing elementary and secondary educators that offer fresh insights, conclusions, and recommendations for action. Our goal is to publish substantive and practical books that contribute to practitioners' knowledge while also being readable and useful.
What is an "ideal" Corwin Press book?
- It is based on theory, research, and/or practical experience.
- It discusses the implications of that theory, research, or experience for universal practice.
- It draws on real-world examples and practices to illustrate points.
- It offers practical, hands-on advice to educators who want to be successful in their chosen careers.
- Most often, it is authored or co-authored, rather than an edited book.
- Our audiences need substantive works that are also 'user-friendly' and tailored to their busy schedules.
