5 Publishing Scientific Research May/June QUESTION: WHEN WAS THE FIRST SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE PUBLISHED?

6 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Philosophical Transactions the world's first science journal In 1662, the 'Royal Society of London for Improving Natural Knowledge' was given permission to publish by King Charles II In March 1665, the first issue of Philosophical Transactions was published The goal was to inform the Fellows of the Society, and other interested readers, of the latest scientific discoveries As such, Philosophical Transactions established the important principles of scientific priority and peer review, which have become the central foundations of scientific journals since Source: Royal Society Publishing (link)

12 Publishing Scientific Research May/June QUESTION: WHY SHOULD YOU PUBLISH YOUR RESEARCH FINDINGS IN SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS?

13 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Why should you publish? Present new and original results or methods Exchange ideas, communicate with peers Advance (not repeat) scientific knowledge and enhance scientific progress Credibility of results Grant writing, research funding Recognition and career advancement Personal prestige, satisfaction and enjoyment

14 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Why should you publish? Funding Bodies Grant writing Researchers Scientific Publication

15 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Why should you publish in English? English is the international language of Science Foster (international) collaborations Develop an international status / reputation

16 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Why not just blog about your work? Scientific publishing through reputed publishing houses ensures: Quality control Innovative publishing technology (POD/PTO, XML) Preservation Professional publishing services (e.g. Abstracting & Indexing ) Global marketing, global visibility and FINDABILITY

17 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Agenda Introduction: the scientific output is growing Composing a publishable manuscript To think about before submission Peer review Choose your journal Structure your manuscript Publishing ethics Submit your article and next steps Define Impact Books and more

18 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Composing a publishable manuscript Think of the challenges the Editor-in-Chief is facing: Number of submitted manuscripts is increasing Quality (scientific content / language) of submitted mss varies Risk of overburdening the editorial board Difficulties to find appropriate reviewers % Journal numbers Journal MS submissions (Daniel McGowan, Edanz, 2012) Year

19 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Composing a publishable manuscript Think of what the Editor-in-Chief wants to achieve: Journals that want to enhance their status / increase impact will be selective to what is accepted Manuscript should stand up to peer review (quality / language) Novel to the scientific community Of interest to the readers of the Journal Pass the selection process of peer review

20 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Peer Review Differentiation in types of peer review: Discipline specific: open / blind / double blind Done before (traditionally anonymously), open or after publication Rejection Major revision Acceptance Minor revision Very few manuscripts get accepted without the need for any revision (Daniel McGowan, Edanz, 2012)

21 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Reading before writing Read broadly Know the status quo of your field of research Have access to the most up-to-date scientific literature Develop concise writing skills as well as specialised vocabulary Determine a feel of (kind of) Journal you wish to publish in Narrow down the research questions in the appropriate context Citation of most appropriate research

22 Publishing Scientific Research May/June QUESTION: HOW DO YOU CHOOSE YOUR JOURNAL?

23 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Choose your Journal After completion of the research, but before writing up Select your readership/audience (aims and scope) Impact (regional / global, visibility, Impact Factor) Competing / collaborating researchers Cost (subscription journal / open access / page charges)

24 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Choose your Journal Ask library staff Ask colleagues for experience with particular journals Useful tools available

25 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Choose your Journal: Business Models Who picks up the bill? Who owns copyright on the final published article? Subscription journals vs Open Access journals

26 2010 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Choose your Journal: Business Models Subscription journals The time for discrete institutional paper subscriptions is past Online deals for large consortia (400+), reaching institutions Accountability: USAGE In general: copyright of the FINAL PDF is with the Publisher/Society: Springer allows to post the final accepted ms to be posted on author s homepage No publication charge Option to publish OA PDF for author

27 Publishing Scientific Research May/June Choose your Journal: Business Models Open Access journals Pay for the publication service Article Processing Charge APC varies from EUR Membership arrangements Automatic waivers for low-income economies (next slide) Editor s waivers Many credible OA publications, with proper peer review Beware of less reputable OA publishers Beware on the license you sign off on (CC-BY / CC-BY-NC)
