It was established in 1966 by Norman Jeffares and Arthur Ravenscroft at Heinemann.[1][2] In 1970, JCL began being published by Oxford University Press. Hanz Zell became the publisher of JCL in 1979.[3] Zell was acquired by K. G. Saur Verlag the following year.[4] After Saur was acquired by Reed International in 1987, its British division was merged with the British holdings of sister publisher R. R. Bowker to form Bowker-Saur. Cambridge Information Group acquired Bowker-Saur in 2001.[5] JCL has been published by SAGE Publications since 2003.
