The Occasional Paper Series
The Occasional Paper Series normally publishes papers pursuant to a select invitation to the author, but others are welcome to make submissions that meet the established standard. Unsolicited texts are submitted for peer review. Each occasional paper has a unique ISBN and its URL is persistent and will not be changed (PURL). The announcement of new publications in the Series normally reaches more than 40,000 institutions and individuals around the world. Occasional papers are longer than TOAEP policy briefs (so they have more than 4,500 words, with no upper limit).
