New NISC site launched

NISC is delighted to announce the launch of our newly developed website featuring a fresh look and feel, improved functionality and our new branding.

The new, clean-looking platform will enhance the user's experience, by offering simple, quick, intuitive navigation. Our journals, books and database pages feature improved usability and we have added new pages on the site to service different kinds of users, wanting to discover more about NISC and our service offerings. The new site has a dynamic news page, featuring items relating to changes at NISC, new products, promotions, prominent research and other useful updates. We have also added links to our pages on several social media platforms, which will be updated regularly. 

Plans for a new site have been in the works for some time and we are pleased that we have reached the stage where it is able to go online. Thanks must go to our developers at Eiledon Solutions who have worked tirelessly to ensure that the new site met all of our technical and design specifications. We will be adding finishing touches to the site in the coming months, but we know this new website will provide users with an improved experience as NISC continues to bring Africa’s research to the world.

The biggest development in the history of Quaestiones Mathematicae was the association with NISC and to have the journal running in a very stable way without severe financial concerns.

It has been an enriching experience working with such enthusiastic and professional people at NISC who have become more friends than business partners over the years.

The NISC partnership has benefited the Indo-Pacific Journal of Phenomenology by bringing sustainability, additional branding and marketing, a wider reach through its websites, and the added value of expertise in the very competitive world of publishing.

Perhaps the most important change, in terms of bringing the Journal to a wider audience, has been its publishing in collaboration with the NISC (Pty) Ltd.

Since 1995, NISC has systematically built up competence and the necessary capacity in all aspects of publishing high-level research journals, with the professionalism needed to flourish in the increasingly competitive world of international research publications. No other publisher in South Africa commands the necessary technical skills, experience, competence, enthusiasm and resources to the same degree as NISC, in my view.

The review process is quick and is being done within the reasonable time. After acceptance, NISC is also quick enough to send proofs and is very efficiently publishes the accepted paper online before its print version.

The editorial experience was excellent: the reviewers were timely and their feedback was generative. The co-editor of the special issue was proactive about communicating information to me. In latter stages, the staff that shepherded the essay through the copy-editing stages was also very helpful and in good contact.

A very supportive, personal and committed editorial team, which takes quality of the work very seriously. I learned a lot through the experience of publishing with Anthropology Southern Africa, and felt supported throughout the process.
