Impact and Book Publishers Online
This workshop looks at scholarly publishing from the perspective of publishing books and book chapters. Deciding where to submit a book manuscript or to write a book chapter can be challenging, especially if you don’t know much about the publisher. This workshop will assist you in looking at book publishers with a critical eye in the decision making process. Objectives for this session include:
- Identifying metrics associated with books (Book Citation Index)
- Identifying other qualitative indicators of publisher quality and impact (WorldCat holdings, Google Scholar citations)
- Negotiating book publishing contracts
- Avoiding vanity press or predatory book publishers
- Discussing the advantages and disadvantages of publishing an open access monograph
