(A collaboration between Student Careers and Skills and The Library)

This series of workshops looks in detail at different types of publications researchers may wish to consider. The sessions will focus on choosing between publication venues, the pros and cons on each type of publication and hints and tips on how to successfully publish with each one.

The series builds on the foundation provided in the ‘Planning your Publication Strategy: The Essentials’ session and will provide additional sections to the workbook introduced in the Essentials session.

Who should attend?
Research Active Staff (research, academic or teaching terms and conditions of employment) and PhD Students.

• Investigated a range of ways to evaluate different scholarly journal titles and other trade publications in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences subject areas.
• Had an introduction to open access and what it means for journal publication.
• Had a short introduction to alternative metrics and what they might mean for Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences scholars.
