The Journal of the ASQDE contains peer-reviewed articles related to the field of forensic document examination. It has been published twice per year since June 1998, available to members and to the public by print and online subscription.

The ASQDE has decided to transition the Journal from subscription-based to full open access, and anticipates this transition to be complete later in 2023. 

As a result, new subscriptions will not be processed. Current 2022 subscribers will continue to enjoy access at no cost until the transition to open access is complete. 

In the interim, single back issues of hard copies, CDs of two-issue volume sets, and the five-year compilations on DVD are still available for purchase.  You can search for an article and order back issues below.
