This session will help you to develop your publication strategy. You will learn how to select publishers and journals that will contribute to your goals and priorities, the individual and societal benefits of publishing research openly and the different routes for open access publishing. You will also learn how to use different tools to find and evaluate relevant journals, including interpreting journal metrics and rankings and how to recognise red flags across the scholarly publishing landscape.

Some of the key skills we will cover are how to:

• identify your publishing goals and priorities
• recognise the differences between green, gold, hybrid and diamond models of open access
• use different strategies and tools to identify a shortlist of relevant journals
• interpret and access journal metrics and ranking sources
• recognise red flags to avoid when choosing a journal, conference or other publishing opportunity.

The workshop will be useful for graduate researchers and other researchers from any discipline area.
