Big Changes for the MTS Journal

The leading publication for professionals involved in machinery and technical specialties valuation (ASA's MTS Journal) is excited to announce a publication change - to better serve our members and enhance the professional stature of the Journal, ASA's MTS Journal is now an Online First Publication!

What is an 'Online First Publication' (OFP)?

An Online First Publication (OFP) refers to a publishing model where articles are made available online as soon as they are finalized, rather than waiting for a specific issue or quarterly release. This means articles are accessible immediately after acceptance, allowing for faster dissemination of information.

Why OFP is a Valuable Advancement for ASA?

  • Faster Access to Information:
    Publishing articles promptly upon completion of the internal review process, ensures content reaches readers more quickly and efficiently, significantly reducing the wait time compared to traditional publication schedules.

  • Integration with Complete Issues
    While articles are initially released online, they will be subsequently compiled into full digital issues for comprehensive archival purposes at the conclusion of each fiscal year. This hybrid approach allows us to maintain the quality and convenience you expect while delivering content in a more timely manner.
  • Shifting selected journal content to ASA's monthly member e-newsletters.
    Advertisements, updates and other non-technical content will be moved to ASA's monthly e-newsletter publication.
