Predatory Publishing in the era of Open Knowledge: Reducing the Odds of Falling Prey!

Thinking about where to publish? Do you receive random invitations to submit your work for publications?

Don’t get caught publishing in a questionable journal! This session will provide an overview of what predatory or deceptive journals are and offer tips on how to avoid them.

The session is part of Open Access Week (October 21-27, 2019), an annual global event that celebrates advances in Open Access, Open Data and Open Education – all part of a worldwide movement to make scholarly publications, data, and a range of educational resources available, free of legal, financial or technical barriers for the benefit of researchers, students, and society as a whole.
