The Enhanced Transfer Alerting Service is a database containing information about journals which are transferred from one publisher to another when these publishers have agreed to comply with the Transfer Code of Practice available on NISO website (https://www.niso.org/standards-committees/transfer).

Since September 10th, 2018, ETAS has been hosted by the ISSN International Centre. Please visit https://journaltransfer.issn.org. Alerts about new transfers are available via a mailing list and a RSS feed.
