The two goals of any editor:
1. To help the authors to get their work published
2. To maintain (an if possible, improve) the quality of
the journal
![Page 4: Future of Publishing - a session on innovations in academic journal publishing from the Society for General Microbiology](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052522/554e79fab4c905f66a8b5021/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Why should you publish?
(there can be little doubt here !)
• Where should you publish?
Not an easy question – some important points for consideration:
- Impact factor- Readership- General – specialized journal- Open access

Author prepares manuscript
(Read the instructions!!)
Editorial office – first check; selects editor
Editor checks the paper
Paper is checked by two or more reviewers
Acceptance
Revision

• Single-blind : Reviewers’ names are hidden from the authors (the traditional method, by far the most common type).
• Double blind : The identities of the authors are concealed from the reviewers and vice versa.
• Open : The author and reviewer are made known to each other. This model promotes open, honest reviewing; however, open review may leads to reviewers withholding criticism for fear of damaging their reputation within the community.
Peer review models
![Page 7: Future of Publishing - a session on innovations in academic journal publishing from the Society for General Microbiology](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052522/554e79fab4c905f66a8b5021/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
An example of ‘open peer review’:
![Page 8: Future of Publishing - a session on innovations in academic journal publishing from the Society for General Microbiology](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052522/554e79fab4c905f66a8b5021/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Post-publication peer review: Papers are reviewed after online publication, reviewers’ comments and decisions and revised manuscripts are published alongside the article.
E.g. F1000Research papers are submitted, go through an in-house pre-publication check for ‘suitability, quality, readability, and for any ethical concerns’, then published online within days of being submitted. Papers are then open to being reviewed by anyone - anonymous or not.
• Portable peer review: A model allowing the transfer of reviews from one journal to another when a paper is rejected in the first – usually to a related journal or journals within the same publisher.
New models of peer review

The conversation is everywhere…• Traditional journals have been around for a long time – Phil.
Trans. Royal Soc. 1664• Late 1990s – Online availability • Early 2000s – Online submission & Publication
– Online only journals, Open Access..• Subscription & Author pays, Author pays
• Late 2000s – Smart phones, Tablets and Apps• Rise of Twitter, Facebook, blogs etc
• 2014 and beyond - ???– Post-REF 2014

Multi-platforms – same content• People read papers in different ways

Flexible formats…• People no longer only ‘talk’ about science in the coffee
room or at conferences….• Pre-prints – arxiv.org, BioRxiv, Nature Precedings, PeerJ• Post-publication review
– Formal – PLoS, PeerJ– Informal – Trial by Twitter - #Arseniclife– Twitter Journal Clubs
• Blog about your research, or if you’re lucky somebody else might

Measuring research outputs – publication driven!
• Citations• What else?

Where next?
• Predicting the future is difficult

Where next?
• Predicting the future is difficult• Funders need to accept new metrics over IF and
traditional citations• A good paper is a good paper…
– Article level metrics will become more important– Web 2.0, Semantic Web– Open Access, Open Data – JMM Case Reports, PLoS,
PeerJ, Nature Scientific Data, Figshare

• We as scientists have the chance to drive the evolution of publishing and make it work for us!
• We need to be brave!• Impact can be more than citations – JMM
Case Reports

Final thought…
“I know you have published over 100 articles, but my question was ‘Have you ever made a contribution to the literature?’”
