The Society's peer-reviewed journals have consistently ranked among the top international publications in their field (based on ISI Science Citation Index criteria) and its proceedings and extended meeting abstracts provide scientists with a first look into the current research. "We know," remarked Yess, "that HighWire will not only be hosting ECS's legacy content of more than 75,000 papers and abstracts, but will also offer a new set of opportunities for visibility and discoverability for future research published by the Society." "HighWire is a leader in hosting technology and integration, and a frontrunner in the academic community," continued Yess. "With an active presence in the digital dissemination of STM and other scholarly content, HighWire's e-publishing capabilities offer the flexibility that will enable ECS to continue to expand the depth of its content and best serve the needs of researchers in electrochemical and solid state science and technology." Noted HighWire's Managing Director, Tom Rump, "we are very pleased to welcome The Electrochemical Society to the HighWire community as they transition their publications to the HighWire platform. Combining HighWire's leading edge and innovative Open Platform technologies with ESC's rich depth of content, together we will leverage the true potential of the ECS Digital Library." With more than 80 years of high-impact research and discovery, the ECS DL, which currently includes the Journal of The Electrochemical Society (JES), Electrochemical and Solid-State Letters (ESL), ECS Transactions (ECST), Interface, and Meeting Abstracts, continues to grow in richness, relevance, and quantity. "ECS's tradition of scientific excellence provides a strong foundation, yet enables a progressive atmosphere for the exchange of knowledge and ideas, in both fundamental and applied aspects," adds Annie Goedkoop, ECS Director of Publications. "We look forward to providing our community with the latest features and best user experience online when they access the ECS Digital Library." ### Full press release can be found at: http://highwire.stanford.edu/PR/ECSchoosesHighWire.pdf contact: Karen Baliff Ornstein 609-737-1902, Ext. 114 [log in to unmask] The Electrochemical Society Bonnie Zavon HighWire | Stanford University e: [log in to unmask]
