Title
URMA | University Research Magazine Association
Description
The University Research Magazine Association's goals are to improve policies and procedures affecting the publication of research magazines and related materials; to develop training, documentation, and communication methods leading to the circulation of ideas and problem-solving techniques among URMA members; and to serve as a national forum and source of visibility for professionals working in this field. URMA is classified as a nonprofit educational organization. It is run by volunteers and has no paid employees.
URMA traces its beginnings to Minneapolis in July 1981. A dozen editors of the then-new and growing field of university research magazines created an informal organization to share knowledge and support.
William Kell, then a magazine editor for the Graduate School, University of Minnesota, organized the 1981 meeting. He believed that the then-new and growing field of magazines reporting on research from universities and research institutions required an organization centered on needs specific to this medium. The twelve in attendance concurred and coined the acronym "URMA."
