WileyBlackwell

Wiley-Blackwell is the publishing brand of John Wiley & Sons, formed in 2007 through the merger of John Wiley & Sons and Blackwell Publishing. It operates as an imprint within Wiley and is focused on scholarly and professional publishing.

The imprint publishes a broad range of academic content, including peer-reviewed journals, reference works, and scholarly books across disciplines such as life sciences, physical sciences, medicine, social sciences, and humanities. Its journals and books are distributed through the Wiley Online Library, a major platform for online access to research and reference material.

Blackwell Publishing originated as a UK-based academic publisher, and the 2007 merger with Wiley consolidated operations to create Wiley-Blackwell as the company’s flagship scholarly publishing arm with a global footprint. Over time, Wiley has integrated branding under its corporate umbrella, yet Wiley-Blackwell remains a widely recognized imprint for academic journals and reference works within the broader Wiley portfolio.

In the global publishing market, Wiley-Blackwell is considered a leading provider of scholarly content, competing with other major publishers such as Springer Nature, Elsevier, and Taylor & Francis. Its publications support research, higher education, and professional practice worldwide, contributing to the dissemination and accessibility of scholarly knowledge.
