***apologies for cross-posting*** We have places remaining on the following course: JOURNAL DEVELOPMENT 12 June, London OVERVIEW: This course examines development strategies for individual journals. By providing a solid overview of the publishing world and considering current and future market trends, it will enable delegates to position their journal within this context. PROGRAMME: * Why develop a journal? * Publishing trends - what are the issues which concern publishers, librarians, intermediaries and end-users? * Market trends and stakeholder analysis * Development options for different types of journal and for different stages in a journal's life-cycle * Scenario planning - what is happening in a journal's world and what are the possible development areas? * SWOT analysis and development planning WHO SHOULD ATTEND: This course is aimed at managing editors/equivalent editorial personnel with at least 2-3 years' experience of managing journals. It is not suitable for editorial assistants or senior editorial managers. DELEGATE COMMENTS: 'Today has been extremely useful as much from the group and informal discussions as from the more formal presentations and feedback - lots of ideas! And nice to get different perspectives.' Caroline Porter, Sage Publications 'Marvellous.'
