Memoirs of the Scientific Sections – Series IV. A Brief Survey
Journal Title: Memoirs of the Scientific Sections - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
This is a brief survey of the evolution of the publication Memoirs of the Scientific Sections, the first academic publication of Romania, issued since the year 1867 with the initial titulature Annals of the Academy. Analele Societății Academice have been published in three series, as follows: Series I (1867-1877), Series II (1879-1922), Series III (1923-1948). Starting with Series II, in the year 1886 (following the creation, in 1872, September 12, of the first Scientific Section of the institution), the publication is re-defined as Memoriile Secțiunii Științifice (Memoirs of the Scientific Section). Series IV, with the titulature Memoriile Secțiilor Științifice (Memoirs of the Scientific Sections), adopted for illustrating the new structure of the academic institution, whose scientific compartments had been reorganized in eight specialized sections, has been launched only 30 years later, in the year 1977, in Iași, at the initiative of acad. Cristofor I. Simionescu. Entering now its 41th year of continuous publication, Series IV of Memoirs of the Scientific Sections remains a valuable journal for the scientific community in Romania and abroad, making its - sometimes difficult, yet resolute - way in the competition with the on-line publications of all types. Taking advantage of this anniversary moment, the Editorial Board of the journal extends its gratitude and recognition to all those who, along the years, supported this valuable editorial initiative.
