Topology was a mathematical journal publishing scholarly articles related to topology and geometry. It was founded by J. H. C. Whitehead in 1962 and was published by Elsevier. The last issue of Topology appeared in 2009.
On 10 August 2006, after months of unsuccessful negotiations with Elsevier about the price policy of library subscriptions, the entire editorial board of the journal handed in their resignation, with effect from 31 December 2006.[1][2] Subsequently, two more issues appeared in 2007 with papers that had been accepted before the resignation of the editors.[3] In early January the former editors instructed Elsevier to remove their names from the website of the journal,[4] but Elsevier refused to comply, justifying their decision by saying that the editorial board should remain on the journal until all of the papers accepted during its tenure had been published.

In 2007 the former editors announced the launch of the Journal of Topology,[5] run under the auspices of the London Mathematical Society at a significantly lower price.[6] Its first issue was published in January 2008.
