Peek-Inside-A-Journal Publishing Workshop

Wednesday, March 25, 2009 12pm-2pm
Location: AL 102

What goes into academic publication? In this workshop, a faculty panel of experienced editors takes us under the covers of a typical journal, giving us a behind-the-scenes look at the publishing process. To do so, they will walk us through the life-cycle of a typical academic journal article, answering questions like:

  • Which academic journal should I submit to?
  • What should my cover letter say?
  • The thin red line: How do editors think?
  • How will I handle rejection or revision requests?
  • What does it take to produce a book?
  • And when will I ever find the time to publish anyhow!?

The workshop audience will include graduate students as well as new faculty members and other members of the SDSU community interested in the academic publishing arena. Attendees will leave the workshop able to identify and describe all key steps in the publication process, including common pitfalls. They will have been equipped to develop a personal roadmap to publication success. So save the date!

At this time, you may register at the door (AL 102) for this event. We begin promptly at noon. Please allow time to sign in and secure a seat.
