Finnish Society of Forest Science

     The Finnish Society of Forest Science was founded in 1909 to
promote research in forest and wood science in Finland. The Society is
a network of researchers and it strives to enhance the links between
researchers and practical foresters and promote public interest in
forest research.

     Finnish Society of Forest Science started science publishing in
1913 by establishing the journal Acta Forestalia Fennica. Its first
issue contained two monograph-style research reports written in
German. During the early years, the publications of the Society were
commonly edited in Finnish or German but some papers appeared in
English or French. Silva Fennica was established in 1926 for
publishing ”short” research reports, i.e. articles written in the
concise style of today’s research articles. The Finnish Society of
Forest Science started publishing cooperation with the Finnish Forest
Research Institute in 1994 and English became the only publishing
language of Silva Fennica. The same year, online publication of the
abstracts began. Open access publication of whole text articles in the
Internet began in 1998. Thus, Silva Fennica was among the first
international scientific journals to go online. In 2000, Acta
Forestalia Fennica merged with Silva Fennica because submission of
monographs almost ceased.

Silva Fennica has established reputation as one of leading forest
science journals of the world. The 100th year of forest science
publishing by the Finnish Society of Forest Science, 2013, brings
another important change for Silva Fennica because it goes online
only. Open access publishing will continue.

IUScholarWorks ejournals to the CLOCKSS Archive represents our
continuing commitment to improving accessibility and strengthening
long-term digital preservation, both of which are deeply connected to
the Libraries’ mission to support and enhance education and research
at IU.”
