The library portal address is library.wmu.se WMU Journal & Book Series The WMU Journal of Maritime Affairs has become a well-recognized, leading maritime journal. In 2010, WMU signed a publishing and distribution contract with Springer Verlag to increase the subscription and publication impact. In 2012 an additional contract was signed with Springer establishing the book series WMU Studies in Maritime Affairs. Dr. Jens-Uwe Schröder-Hinrichs and Dr. Larry Hildebrand serve as co-editors. Each electronic issue of the Journal contains at least four open access articles, increasing citations and expanding the global impact of the Journal. Henrik Smith Residence The majority of WMU students in Malmö live at the Henrik Smith Residence (HSR), located 3 km from WMU. HSR has 216 single study-bedrooms, each with a private bathroom and access to cooking facilities. Rooms at HSR may be rented by non-students during low residency periods.
