Advanced Journal Development: Strategic Development for Journal Managers is aimed at delegates who have experience in managing and developing journals and are looking for a more senior workshop that will examine wider strategic decisions. It has been designed as a follow-on from Journal Development 1 which provides participants with a toolbox system for planning the development of their journals although it is not essential to have attended this course.

Programme

The big picture: globalization; of research and publishing; access models – the implications of repositories and different systems; the influence of non-traditional publishers – removing the middleman?: data and journals – pressure to include and exclude; technology; innovation and new services – who is pushing whom?
Partnerships and collaboration: contracts, implications, advantages and disadvantages
Building on strengths and weaknesses: how to identify and resolve weaknesses before they become problematic
Journal development strategies: list management and title management, new titles – acquiring and launching, closing and selling journals
Using development to build strategic success: objectives and plans, identifying and bidding for new journals.
