Report of Special American Dairy Science Association Committee on Publication Policy

ABSTRACT

This special committee met in Miami Beach, Florida, on October 7, 1959, with all members present. President A. C. Fay made all arrangements and joined the committee for the entire day's deliberation.

The charge to the committee dealt with the subject of Future Publication Policies of the Journal. This question grew out of increasing dissatisfaction among some of our membership who feel that our Journal, in many respects, is too technical even for those who have a strong interest in the field. On the other hand, some dairy scientists feel that our Journal is becoming too applied and practical, and that a further trend in this regard might jeopardize its status as a scientific Journal.

The committee decided that in order to see this problem intelligently we should first analyze the composition of our present membership and attempt to decide who should be encouraged to seek membership in our Association.
