LAND-GRANT PRESS BY CLEMSON EXTENSION (Managing Editor)
The Land-Grant Press repository (lgpress.clemson.edu) was launched in July of 2019. Land-Grant Press publications are science-based, peer-reviewed scholarly work authored by Clemson Extension Agents and University scientists for professionals, managers and owners who benefit from Extension’s program offerings and work within the College of Agriculture, Forestry and Life Sciences. The Land-Grant Press repository serves as a partner collection to the Home and Garden Information Center (HGIC), which provides research-based information on a wide range of topics for homeowner and Master Gardener audiences (hgic.clemson.edu).

CLEMSON EXTENSION PUBLISHING IMPRINT (Marketing Executive)
Clemson Extension Publishing, an imprint of Clemson University Press (libraries.clemson.edu/press/), publishes research-led books, practical guides and manuals in subject areas including but not limited to entomology, horticulture, agriculture, food science, nutrition, gardening, forestry, water and wildlife. The Press also publishes related academic journals in the imprint, such as the Journal of South Carolina Water Resources. Publications in the imprint advance Clemson University’s land-grant mission to disseminate quality, trusted information and enrich lives through education. All publications in the imprint are subject to rigorous peer review and benefit from the appraisal of the imprint’s Advisory Board.

JOURNAL OF SOUTH CAROLINA WATER RESOURCES (Managing Staff Editor)
The Journal of South Carolina Water Resources (tigerprints.clemson.edu/jscwr) is a peer-reviewed, open-access publication established in 2013 by South Carolina Water Resources Conference planning committee members to enhance outreach efforts. The Journal is published annually, and the issues are available through the Clemson Libraries TigerPrints digital repository. The aim of the Journal of South Carolina Water Resources is to provide a forum for articles about the condition of South Carolina's water resources, with the goals of influencing science-based management decisions and heightening awareness of water resources. Authors are encouraged to consider this forum as an outlet to communicate information and results from their work on advancements in water science, policy, management and law pertaining to South Carolina.
