The Johns Hopkins Publishing Group (JHPG) produces Johns Hopkins Magazine, the university‘s flagship publication, and provides consulting, editorial, and design services for other university and alumni publications. Current clients include some of the Johns Hopkins academic divisions as well as other colleges and universities. Drawing on staff from Johns Hopkins Magazine and what was formerly the Alumni Magazine Consortium, JHPG assists clients with magazine redesign, templates for new publications, ongoing editorial consultation, magazine critiques, writing workshops and other services. Johns Hopkins Magazine is a five-times-a-year publication that provides nearly 150,000 alumni, faculty and friends with a way to stay engaged in the life of the university. We know from a readership survey conducted this past summer that our readers like to be intellectually challenged—to be drawn into a lively debate of ideas and contemporary issues—and they look to the magazine as a source of continuing education. Survey statistics: 82 percent of people contacted were regular readers and therefore able to participate in the survey—a very high incidence; almost half share their copy of the magazine with an average of two other people; 95 percent of readers gave the magazine an overall grade of A or B, and the best-liked area of the magazine by far is the features; when asked what they want to read about the most, the largest percent said ?discussion of ideas and world events,? followed by ?faculty research?; about two-thirds of our readers say the magazine is their only source of news about Johns Hopkins; only about 16 percent of readers are interested in an online version. We‘ve built a reputation for in-depth, substantive and balanced reporting on groundbreaking research, fascinating people and issues important to the Johns Hopkins community. Since its founding in 1950, Johns Hopkins Magazine has consistently been recognized by the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE), winning individual and staff editorial honors, and has been the recipient of the Robert Sibley Award (the highest commendation in university magazines) more often than any other magazine in the country. |
