Scholarly communication covers a broad range of topics and issues including copyright and intellectual property, research policy, metadata, indexing practices and data analysis techniques. But how do we approach these topics in a manner that is easy to understand for a PhD student who has just embarked on the publication process, or a librarian who provides support to researchers? This book aims to work through the interrelated scholarly communication topics and issues with the question, ?Where to publish?? Understanding the many considerations in selecting a publication venue or devising a research dissemination strategy, the readers will not only make informed decisions about where they publish, but they will also understand policy changes and advocacy work in relation to research and publication practices.
