Research Publishing Guides
PUBLICATION STRATEGY
- This guide aims to make the publisher and journal selection process a little less daunting.
- Selecting where you publish and how you publish can impact its visibility, and in turn your visibility as a researcher.
- Submitting to a publisher/journal that isn’t best suited to your research is a common mistake, made by both experienced and early-career researchers.
- This guide will outline a number of factors to consider and steps to take when selecting the best outlet for your research.
OPEN ACCESS PUBLISHING
Open Access is a publishing and distribution model that makes scholarly research literature (articles, book chapters, data, etc.) freely available online, allowing unrestricted access with no reading or subscription fee, sometimes after an agreed period has elapsed since initial publication.
It complements and extends the established practices and rigorous selection of publications in peer reviewed journals and elsewhere, operating in parallel with conventional publication channels.
