Scholarly Publishing Insights

 

Looking at the data, what insights emerge?

You know that the research landscape is changing. The annual growth rate of scientific and scholarly journals is 3.5%, meaning that with the current number of titles, there's almost a thousand new journals every year - and that will only keep increasing. Keeping a pulse on all these changes can be overwhelming.

Looking at the submissions, reviews, and decisions data of journals over the last five years (2012 – 2016), what insights about scholarly publishing emerge? Utilizing aggregated data from ScholarOne Manuscripts and Web of Science, we’re exploring insights by country/region, world region, subject category, and more, and what all this data might mean for the future. Through a series of webinars, infographics, white papers, articles, and formal and informal discussions, we want to engage with you about these Scholarly Publishing Insights.
