In these difficult times Brepols continues to serve scholars and libraries !
Of course our thoughts are with all who are affected by this terrible virus and we hope they will get better soon. At the same time we want to help the academic community and researchers who now work from home. During this health crisis we continue to provide our usual services.
Authors can always contact our publishing managers or send us new proposals. Our customer care service continues to assist you and our e-commerce site is fully operational.
Moreover, as most scholars don’t have access to libraries anymore, Brepols is offering its online institutional clients (and their scholars) the following free services (to at least the end of May):
- Access to the BREPOLiS databases is extended to unlimited simultaneous use for current subscribers
- Free access to our e-book and e-journal archive (in read-only mode)
Librarians merely have to “opt-in” to these free services by e-mail (online@brepols.net) and then inform their scholars and students.
We will continue to fulfill and ship orders worldwide, both through our customer care department, and through our webshop. However, since not all institutions are able to accept deliveries for the moment, we have decided to briefly postpone the release of new print books and print journals (foreseen for April). Online journal issues will be published as usual and will be made available on BrepolsOnline.
Of course, the Brepols team is at your disposal for all your questions or proposals. You can contact us through the usual channels, which work perfectly from our home locations. We sincerely hope that these extra services will help with your work in these difficult times - and we wish you good health!
