NEW CHEMISTRY WEBSITE Boca Raton, Florida, January 11, 2011 — In honor of the 2011 International Year of Chemistry, Taylor & Francis Group/CRC Press launched our new Chemistry Arena website at www.chemistryarena.com in January 2011. The web site provides access to all things Chemistry — from high-quality journal reviews and cutting-edge articles to the latest news, conference listings, and interviews with journal editors, book authors and editors, and experts. The International Year of Chemistry 2011 (IYC-2011) is a worldwide celebration of the achievements of chemistry and its contributions to the well-being of humankind. Under the unifying theme “Chemistry—our life, our future,” IYC 2011 offers a range of interactive, entertaining, and educational activities for all ages. The Year of Chemistry is intended to reach across the globe, with opportunities for public participation at the local, regional, and national level. Chemistryarena.com links to CRC Press’s top notch chemistry collection, which includes the renowned CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics now in its 91st edition. Once small enough to fit in a chemists apron pocket and now a 2500-page volume, the Handbook continues to be a mainstay of science and technology. Chemistryarena.com also links to the award-winning CHEMnetBASE where users can find an interactive periodic table and gold-standard resources such as the Combined Chemical Dictionary and the Dictionary of Natural Products. Fans of CRC Press Chemistry Books on Facebook can keep up-to-date with the latest news from CRC Press as well as news and events related to the International Year of Chemistry. They will find updates on conferences as well as news and notes about authors, the latest publications, and other special events. They can also sign up for email promotions that will occur throughout the year at www.crcpress.com.
