Publishing and Getting Read - A Guide for Researchers in Geography
June 08, 2015
Publishing is a crucial, but sometimes daunting and unexplained, part of academic
life. All academic geographers are supposed to do it, but there are few formal
guidelines about how best it should be done.
Many of us discover how to
publish by trial and error or through the mentoring and support of colleagues.
Publishing and academic landscapes also change, presenting new challenges to
established academics.
This guide has four main aims: to provide clear, practical
and constructive advice about how to publish research in a wide range of forms; to
encourage you to think strategically about your publication profile and plans; to set
out some of the opportunities and responsibilities you have as an author; and to
support you in getting your published research read.
