Publishing the Academic Journal
The number of academic journals--electronic and print--has exploded over the last decade, yet instruction on how to run an academic journal is virtually nonexistent. I teach academic journal publishing workshops to graduate students, faculty members, and university staff. I most often offer these workshops exclusively, that is, for the staff of a particular journal. Sometimes, however, I offer these at universities where there are a number of editors working on different journals. If you are starting a journal, or struggling to keep an existing journal afloat, these workshops can be helpful.
     For more information on my academic journal publishing workshops, as well as advice on working with freelancers and printers, see the links on the left.
     For more information on creating online academic journals, please see an article entitled "Initiating and Editing an Online Professional Refereed Journal," which includes "Fourteen Recommendations to Editors of Online Refereed Journals," in JEP: The Journal of Electronic Publishing.
