The Publications Committee advises the ASH Executive Committee on the long-range strategic planning and management of ASH publications, including the Blood journals as well as other print and digital publications. The Publications Committee is responsible for developing and evaluating proposals for publications that may benefit the Society and the field of hematology. The Publications Committee works to enhance the value and impact of ASH publications for hematology.
The Publications Committee structure includes a member of the Committee on Educational Affairs as a liaison member. The following are ex officio, non-voting members of the Publications Committee and are excluded from the executive sessions:
- Editor-in-Chief, Blood (and Designee when applicable)
- Deputy Editor, Blood (and Designee when applicable)

Also, they cannot be employees or owners of Ineligible Companies as defined by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education.
