This week's webinar is entitled "Journal Article Publishing: The Review
Process, Ethics, Publishing Contracts, Open Access, and the Kitchen
Sink" and will be co-presented by Caroline Sutton of Co-Action
Publishing and Helle Goldman of the journal 'Polar Research.' This
webinar will demystify the publishing process by explaining what happens
to a manuscript after it's submitted, focusing on how submissions are
evaluated. This webinar will introduce a range of topics connected to
journal article publishing, including single-blind versus double-blind
review, tips for authors submitting manuscripts, ethical issues
(plagiarism, salami slicing, duplicate publication), understanding the
fine print in publishers' contracts, and open access publishing and how
authors benefit from it.
