Educational Webinars

Join this webinar to learn more about the author’s experience when interacting with publishers.

Communication around open access can be complicated - both for authors during the publishing process, and readers while accessing articles.

Let's talk about research metrics, notably journal and article metrics, in an open access context. Is open access content read and hence cited more widely? Do open access journals have a...

In this webinar we will talk about what pre-prints are, where you can find them, and what value they can bring. Are pre-print servers used more widely in certain subjects, and why? And what impact...

Open Access usage is a complex topic. In this webinar, we'll look at what metrics can be collected, and whether we should look at the data globally, or at an institutional level, possibly to eval...

How is Open Access affecting small publishers, including learned societies and independent presses? Are they influenced by funder mandates in the same way as bigger publishers? Do they have establi...

In June, we dove into the topic of authorship data. With us were Miguel Peralta, International Sales Manager at Rockefeller University, Tyler Ruse, Director, Publisher Solutions at Digital Science, and Matthew Covey, University Librarian at Rockefeller University. For the webinar, we jumped into three different aspects, one of them being how OA has changed how you look at authorship data in the different organizations; how things were done “pre” Open Access, what’s happened now, and the implications of it.

More and more content is being published openly, but we're still experiencing issues with accessing paywalled content such as archived material. Similarly, Open Access (OA) publishing can be an una...

In April, we unpacked this topic in our webinar, where we discussed the effect of OA on institutions, publishers, and submission system providers. The panel consisted of Matthew Goddard, Head & E-Resources Librarian at Iowa State University, Kate Horgan, Director of Client Services at Aries Systems, and Matthew Day, Head of Open Research Policy & Partnerships at Cambridge University Press. Perhaps common challenges related to institutional affiliation and author roles are determined at submission.

Join us as we wrap up our researcher-centric webinar series with a final session where we’ll look into why OA agreements are needed and how they come about in a practical sense. Because what exactly do these agreements entail? And what role do discounts, vouchers, and waivers play in this?

Understanding different funder requirements and the specific terms of a grant in relation to OA publishing is certainly no cakewalk. Tune in for our third session in our webinar series where we look closer at how Open Access fit with funder requirements.

For the second session in this webinar series, you can look forward to becoming a full expert on article processing charges (APCs)! The hosts for this webinar are Publisher Relations & Business Development Manager, Romy Beard and Customer Care Specialist & Researcher, Laura Davidson, who’ll put their heads together and discuss APCs from a to z!

For our second webinar, we took a closer look at some of the key learnings from Emerald Publishing's experiences with technology partnerships! Guest speakers were Head of Open Research at Emerald Publishing, Shelley Allen, Delivery Director at 67Bricks, David Leeming, and CEO of LibLynx, Tim Lloyd.

Don't miss the first part of our brand-new webinar series: From Research to Publication: A Researcher’s Guide to Open Access. First in line is: Why Should I Care About Open Access?

January 27 marked an important milestone for us! We hosted our very first webinar on Making Open Access Agreements More Transparent for Authors, inviting guest speakers from across the research community to share their initiatives and perspectives.
