About PDC
The Philosophy Documentation Center has been serving the scholarly
community on a non-profit basis since 1966, earning a reputation for
excellence with the publication of essential reference materials, peer-reviewed
journals, conference proceedings, and research databases. We provide a full range of
electronic publishing services, including digital workflow management and support for a range of
both institutional and individual access options. This work includes customized electronic
conversion services for print journals or series of any size. Other services include membership
management for professional organizations, secure hosting of full-text content in any western language, order fulfillment for
print or electronic journals, rights and permissions management, typesetting and graphic design services,
conference registrations, and marketing services. Our range of services continues to expand to meet the
needs of our clients and partners.
In addition to supporting teaching and research in philosophy and
related disciplines, we try to expand the reach of philosophical work outside
the classroom with the distribution of philosophy magazines, newsletters, and videos. We also jointly sponsor
the APA/PDC Prize for Excellence and Innovation in Philosophy Programs with the American
Philosophical Association.
