UH Press Upgrades Website
On Thursday, July 7, UH Press launched a new website. We apologize in advance for the inconvenience and hope you will be pleased with the new interface.
Among the major enhancements to the new web storefront are online credit-card authorization, easier navigation by subject categories and publishing partners, and the ability to order books and journals in the same shopping cart.
However, all links to individual book and journal pages on the old site will be broken. We have a lot of broken links to repair. Existing links to our journals homepages will be redirected to the new journals topic pages. Examples of hyperlinks to individual journals and books follow.
- Links to journals homepages have the shape https://www.uhpress.hawaii.edu/t-pacific-science.aspx, where “t-” indicates a topic page, followed by the short name of the journal, and “.aspx” indicates the web application framework (ASP.NET).
- Links to individual book pages have the shape https://www.uhpress.hawaii.edu/p-9780824809201.aspx, where “p-” indicates a product page, followed by the ISBN without hyphens, and “.aspx” indicates the web application framework (ASP.NET).
Because of differing encryption standards between our old and new e-commerce packages, all of our current customers will have to create new logins on our new site.

Hurdles Facing New Humanities Journals
Abstract: While the barriers to international scholarly communication have never been lower, the hurdles facing any new journal seeking to gain a respectable foothold in academic institutions are rising, not falling. Among the factors most responsible for lowering barriers are the rapid spread of digital connectivity and the ease of using electronic media. Among the latest obstacles to be surmounted are sharp cuts in library budgets; the dispersal of journal identities into individual articles; and the rise of bureaucratic journal ranking systems in the humanities that use arbitrary and hidebound criteria to rate scholarly output.
