Talk:Berghahn Books

Notability

This publisher doesn't appear to be notable. I haven't been able to identify any significant coverage of it, including any coverage of its receipt of the PROSE Award. And the PROSE Award itself doesn't appear to be a notable award. ^Bongo_matic 04:31, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

• The publisher has a 16 year old story, its origins track back since 1983, from Berg Books. The award: http://www.proseawards.com/current-winners.html

Berghahn Books publishes in association with many international institutions, including: American Institute of Contemporary German Studies, British Centre for Durkheimian Studies, Leo Baeck Institute, London/New York, Refugee Studies Centre, University of Oxford, UNESCO. http://www.berghahnbooks.com/index.php?pg=partners. Also: review from 'African Affairs' (“… it is worth saluting Berghahn, the publisher that produces the Cameroon Studies series. This undertaking is a wonderful resource for English-speaking students of Cameroonian history. Not only are these books well produced with plentiful illustrations, but they are also reasonably priced. They will form some of the canonical texts for Camerooon studies for years to come, and Cameroonists are very lucky to have such a supportive publisher ... Cameroonists now have a whole group of newly available primary sources, elegantly set in context and ready for interpretation. “ on http://www.berghahnbooks.com/series.php?pg=came_stud), 'New York Review of Books' ("Surveys such as those provided by the Istituto Cattaneo are absolutely essential for getting any kind of overview of the constantly shifting alliances that lie behind Italy's frequent if largely cosmetic changes of government ... Episodes ... of Byzantine complexity [are] all excellently covered in the Istituto Cattaneo's reviews." on http://www.berghahnbooks.com/series.php?pg=ital_poli) Paoloxford (talk) 14:04, 12 September 2011 (UTC) p.s.: I have been adding Scopus to the indexing services of several journals, which automatically should put the publisher in a notability position, according to Wikipedia rules.Paoloxford (talk) 08:54, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

• Only if this is confirmed by reliable sources. At this point, not even the journals' homepages list Scopus. --Crusio (talk) 09:47, 15 September 2011 (UTC) Hi Crusio, please check the journals pages, they now list Scopus. e.g.: http://journals.berghahnbooks.com/nc/index.php?pg=indexing Paoloxford (talk) 10:06, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Last but not least, I have recently been looking for recent and older reviews Berghahn had in Choise and Times Literary supplement, which are both considerent significant. Please try to find e.g. 'Nazi Paris' - Choice Review Number: 46-7027. You could find many others. This might give Berghahn third-party citations and demonstrate that the house is taken seriously by the industry. I would also point out that other publishers (eg. Taylor and Francis or Berg Publishers) don't have any more outside citations than Berghahm. What do you think? Can we finally keep the article? Paoloxford (talk) 16:10, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
