Survey seeks insight on wildlife publishing experience

As publishing evolves, researchers are seeking a better understanding of author experiences and barriers

With scientific journals moving toward open access and digital formats, as well as becoming more affordable overall, the wildlife publishing scene is rapidly changing. As a result, a survey team, led by researchers from Northern Arizona University, is hoping to learn more about authors’ ideas around publishing and how it could improve. The researchers will share the data they gather with wildlife journal editorial boards in the hopes of future implementation. The survey only takes 15 minutes to complete and closes on Sept. 30.

Those interested can take the survey here.
