As the world's leading English language publisher of academic and professional management literature, Emerald strives to be publisher of choice for academics, researchers and professionals in the fields of management, library services and engineering.  Our focus on theory into practice, we believe, sets us apart from others - it means that all Emerald journals publish papers which have a direct application to the world of work.  It means that we ask editors and review board members to focus on application, and beneficial implication of theory for practice.   It means that we focus our journals on the needs of authors and readers - the applied researcher, the reflective practitioner, the students and faculty of business; and the MBA School.

2. Our unique contribution to their efforts is to provide resources that are practical and useful.
