AAAS Expands the Science Family of Journals

From the press release:
As an online-only, open-access journal, Science Advances will help AAAS make more outstanding research available to researchers and others, according to Alan I. Leshner, the association's chief executive officer and executive publisher of Science. "Since the mid-1990s, technology has posed new challenges for traditional scholarly publications, but it is also creating new opportunities, particularly for online collaboration among researchers," said Leshner, who added that enhancing scientific communication has long been a primary goal for AAAS. "Our new journal will expand authors' choices as well as the amount of scientific information that reaches the public."
