Do you have trouble selecting a journal for your publication?  Should you publish in that journal that sent you an email? Falvey Memorial Library has created a “How-to Guide” called “Selecting a Journal for Publication” that will help you on this topic.

The guide has several sections. Identifying Journals provides several tools that will suggest journals in your field.  Journal Metrics provides you with tools for assessing journals.  Open Access Publishing will introduce you to journals with a different funding model. Author’s Rights will help you understand the rights you have and might be signing away when you publish. Finally, Writing Guides will link you to physical and electronic books that will help you write for publication.

This is just one of the new or updated How-to Guides.

Alfred Fry is Science and Engineering Librarian at Falvey Memorial Library.
