(10 Apr 2026) The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) has announced a new agreement with Wiley, under which Wiley will operate a significant portion of ASME’s publishing business.
The deal covers sales and marketing for ASME’s journals and conference proceedings, as well as the digital collection comprising these publications. ASME will retain responsibility for its book publishing programme, which includes nearly 400 print titles and more than 200 digital books spanning established and emerging areas in mechanical engineering.
ASME emphasised that all publications will remain ASME products, with the society retaining copyright. Its mission, editorial governance and peer review processes will remain unchanged across all formats.
The society will also continue working closely with its volunteer leadership, including the Technical Committee on Publications and Communications (TCPC) and its Board of Editors, ensuring that editorial direction remains grounded in independent technical expertise.
Wiley will bring its global publishing infrastructure, sales and marketing capabilities, and technology platforms to support the scale, discoverability and impact of ASME’s content, while aiming to minimise disruption for editors, authors and reviewers.
