Routledge publishes on behalf of many prominent associations.

Routledge also works with Oxfam, publishing and distributing their journal Gender and Development.
Through our publications, Routledge aims to allow our editors and authors to define the fields in which they work. Routledge is committed to launching new books and journals in developing fields, whilst also supporting established areas of study.

Routledge's publishing programme addresses changing market conditions and customer demands in terms of content delivery. Routledge listens to librarians' needs, especially the storage and budgeting pressures they experience. To that end, Routledge now publishes 99% of our social science and humanities journals online, and are committed to a programme of retrodigitisation. Routledge has worked with librarians to develop pricing models which allow them to purchase journals most relevant to their users' requirements.
Taylor & Francis also has a number of Web Arenas where the knowledge and expertise of our editors has been used to provide you with information and links to other sites of interest:
