I’m pleased to act as liaison for the Board, and to work with such an exceptional group of engineers. They act as a sounding board for our ideas and keep us informed of engineering research “hot spots.” In the past six months we’ve added new content areas such as project management and signed licensing deals with leading societies such as AASHTO and ASHRAE based on their recommendations.

Of course, we’ll continue to follow up on our customer requests. We value customer feedback. But we want to be proactive. We want to publish content before it’s needed. The Editorial Advisory Board is yet another way for Knovel to keep our collective ear to the ground. Rather than ask customers, “what do you want on the website?” we’re working with industry experts to ensure that the content needed to do an engineering job is there before you have to ask.

I want to take this opportunity to welcome the Editorial Advisory Board members to the Knovel team. We’re excited you’re here.
