“Dear esteemed author:” …
Have you received an email promising to publish your research article or conference presentation in an exciting new journal to great accolades? So-called predatory publishers exploit researchers’ need to disseminate research results with flattery and false assurances. In this session, we’ll examine ways to assess the credibility of a publisher and/or journal. We’ll discuss tools to help you evaluate a prospective journal, select an appropriate journal for your research and understand your rights as a author.
