Ryan James Jessup JD/MPA on Post Publication Promotion in Scholarly Publishing

Impact Journals, LLC, was honored to be selected as one of 12 speakers by the Society for Scholarly Publishing to present "Post-Publication Manuscript Promotion: A Small Publisher’s Ability to Rapidly and Widely Disseminate New Results and Scholarship with In-house Techniques" at their 41st annual meeting.

In this sponsored session, within the session track "Publishing on a Smaller Scale: Large commercial publishers often dominate the news due to scale, but there are a myriad of other publishers helping bring critical new results and scholarship to the world." Impact Journals outlined the basics of in-house post-publication promotion techniques and digital engagement platforms.

This year’s meeting represented a focused effort on inviting new voices into the ongoing conversations—not just geographically but with any new perspectives that help everyone move together toward a new age of scholarly communication.
