Welcome to the new style HINOW. Our aim is to provide benefits to readers and authors alike. No longer constrained by a limited number of pages we will be able to publish more articles and make them available to many more people.

Material will be published on the website as soon as it has been through the editorial system and therefore publication will become more streamlined.

There are also more ways to get your message across: interact with material that is published on the website, blog, or submit opinion pieces. News and events listings have now become part of the general health web portal.

HINIOW remains an entity as a quarterly collection of web published articles bound in an issue that will be kept indefinitely and can be cited and printed. We will continue to have themes that we will focus on a given issue and commission pieces related to the theme, but will not be bound by such themes.

Articles will be subject to much the same editorial control as at present. Opinion pieces and blogs will have a much lighter touch.

If you want to contribute articles, opinion pieces, blog or just want to comment on the changes then please write to Justin.richards@hq.bcs.org.uk
