The secret life of new journals
In an interview with editor Greta Heydenrych we explore new journals. Why and how they are created, what challenges they face in a modern publishing environment, and who they are intended to serve. With the leadership and support of excellent chairpersons, board members, and a diligent team of editors, ChemPubSoc Europe has welcomed three new journals to its portfolio since 2016: ChemPhotoChem, Batteries & Supercaps, and the newest addition ChemSystemsChem.
