Routledge, which Taylor & Francis acquired in 1998, was also founded in 1852 and is now considered to be the leading English-language publisher of humanities and social sciences. The merged company has become one of the top five research publishers globally. In 2003 we acquired CRC Press, best known for titles in engineering, materials science, and mathematics. In 2004 Taylor & Francis merged with Informa and has been its academic publishing division since then. More recent acquisitions include Dove Medical Press in 2017, which specializes in medical journals; and, in 2020, F1000. F1000 provides open research publishing venues that support data deposition and sharing to research funders and institutions. These include the European Commission, Wellcome and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Today our brands advance knowledge across humanities and social sciences, science and technology, engineering, medicine and healthcare.
