The 51 Libraries invite you to a workshop in which you will learn about the best practices for scholarly article publishing in Springer Nature journals. This year, the 51 Libraries and Springer Nature signed a new “read and publish” agreement which allows authors to publish their articles through the open access program without paying processing charges while retaining their copyrights.
In this workshop, the Springer Nature publisher will discuss how to choose the right journal for your manuscript submission, what happens during the editorial and peer review processes, how to respond to reviewer comments effectively, and how to publish open access articles via the new agreement. In addition, the 51 faculty authors will talk about their first-hand experiences of the scholarly article publishing and how they make decisions about what, where, and how to publish.
Program:
12:00-12:30 pm: Lunch sponsored by Springer Nature
12:30-12:35 pm: Introduction by Michael Doylen, Associate Vice Provost & Library Director
12:35-12:55 pm: Presentation by Rina Ghose, Professor of Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering
