Workshop — Don’t Become Prey: Avoiding Predatory Journals & Publishers

Dear Clarkson Students,

The Clarkson University Libraries will continue our fall workshop series Monday, Nov. 5 at 5pm in Rowley 142 — or remotely by Adobe Connect — with Don’t Become Prey: Avoiding Predatory Journals & Publishers. (To attend remotely please click here.)

An unfortunate and unintended side effect of the increasing availability of open access publishing has been a rise in “predatory” publishers.

Geared toward graduate students, faculty, and anyone interested in publishing their work, this workshop will discuss publishing for new authors and what a predatory publisher is, and share tips and tricks for avoiding predatory publishers.

Other planned workshop topics include:

  • Finding images and multi-media for presentations.

It prominently features the text "CUGSA Travel Grant" at the top, indicating the main subject of the poster. This is part of the "2nd Round of Applications (2024)" for a grant offered by the Clarkson University Graduate Student Association (CUGSA).

She appears professional and cheerful, possibly representing a satisfied grant recipient or a potential applicant. She is holding a tablet, suggesting her engagement with academic or professional work. Below this, the poster asks, "Will you be at a conference between July 1st and December 31st, 2024?" which sets the context for the travel grant's applicability. It lists eligibility criteria that include being a full-time graduate student and presenting at a conference. The deadline for application submission is specified as May 10th, 2024. The poster also includes a QR code at the bottom, intended for scanning to likely direct viewers to the application form or additional information online. Overall, the poster's design is aimed at attracting attention with its bright colors and clear typography, efficiently communicating essential details about the travel grant opportunity.
