Dear Delegates,
Welcome to Oxford Journals Day 2015, the eighth time we have hosted
this event for our editors and society partners. We hope that it will
prove to be an informative, stimulating, and enjoyable event.
This year we have a wide-ranging and thought-provoking programme.
Some of the presentations will look at the journals publishing
environment, e.g. recent developments in Open Access publishing,
the future of peer-review, and indeed the future of the journal (we
are nothing if not ambitious). There will also be sessions profiling
things that OUP is doing in areas such as journals marketing, as well
as working with authors for who English is not their first language.
Completing the mix, there will be sessions with a more practical
angle that we hope will have application to your titles, in areas such
as ethics and special issues.
We will also be repeating the one-on-one drop-in sessions between
delegates and OUP experts for specific practical advice on services
provided by OUP, such as online submission systems, editorial office
support, and production at OUP. If you are interested in having a
one-on-one session, these can be booked in advance via the Oxford
Journals Day registration form, with time slots being allocated upon
registration. Alternatively a sign-up form will be available on the day
to register your interest.
One innovation this year is the introduction of mini-presentations
– very brief talks followed by questions and answers. Topics include
corporate sales, Oxford Language Editing service, new online proofing
tools, and how OUP’s library sales team operates.
We welcome feedback from delegates, and each year we distribute
a survey to all attendees to gather your opinions on the event. There
will be a print version of the survey available for you to fill out at the
conference or, alternatively, you can fill out the online version here:
www.surveymonkey.com/s/OJDUK2013delegate
We use your responses to improve delegate experience year-on-year,
as
well as informing programme content for future Oxford Journals Day
conferences.
Once again we are encouraging all attendees to share their experience
by tweeting about the sessions and speakers. If you are on Twitter,
please follow the Oxford Journals Twitter feed (@OxfordJournals) and
use the event hashtag #ojday.
If you have any questions about Oxford Journals Day during the
event, please contact a member of the Oxford Journals Day organizing
committee, who will be stationed in the conference office.
We hope Oxford Journals Day is a thoroughly rewarding and valuable
experience.
Many thanks,
The Oxford Journals Day Committee
