Florida Atlantic University Libraries’ announces the launch of the University’s first open access journal published with the Open Journal System. The Florida Geographer, the official publication of the Florida Society of Geographers is now available online at http://journals.fcla.edu/flgeog. Under the Editorial direction of Dr. Russell Ivy and production editor James Clark-Gammack of FAU’s Department of Geosciences the transition from print to electronic copy was made successful with the collaboration of FAU’s Digital Library. The journal’s scope continues to include all aspects of physical, human and applied geography with a preference for topics with a focus set in Florida. National and international research conducted by geographers based in Florida is also considered as well as articles focused on geographic education.  Congratulations to FAU’s Department of Geosciences on their venture into open access publishing!
