CAA acknowledges
the concern of many of its members regarding the acquisition of Ashgate
by Informa, the parent company of Taylor & Francis. The Ashgate art
and humanities publications series have been a critically important
venue for
art history and critical scholarship because of their high quality
production. Ashgate’s art and humanities series have also increased in
value as the opportunities for scholarly monograph publishing
diminishes. CAA has conveyed the concerns to Taylor & Francis
that the high quality of the editorial process at Ashgate be maintained
by Taylor & Francis and the art and humanities series continue to
publish as fully as in the past.
The statement has now been posted on the College Art Association's website
