SUMMARY:Faculty Forum on Open Access Publishing and the Tenure & Promo
 tion Process
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday, October 23, 2012, 10am, in the EUC Claxton Roo
 m, the Faculty Senate Scholarly Communications Committee and the Unive
 rsity Libraries will sponsor a faculty forum on open access publishing
  in the tenure and promotion process.  Currently, there are more than
  30,000 open-access peer-reviewed journals published worldwide, and in
  lieu of a subscription-based business model, many open access journal
 s require authors to pay article processing fees.  Such fees are comm
 on in some disciplines, especially science, technology, and medicine; 
 however, they are less common in the social sciences and humanities. 
  How faculty members perceive open access publishing and article proce
 ssing fees frequently depends on their discipline and their own publis
 hing experience.  Which raises the question, in the tenure and promot
 ion process, how should faculty works published in open access journal
 s be viewed?  Are they equivalent to works published in traditional s
 ubscription-based journals?  Join us for a panel of UNCG faculty who 
 will discuss their experiences with open access publishing, including 
 observations about open access publishing in the tenure and promotion 
 process.  The panelists are:\n \nPaige Hall Smith, Public Health Edu
 cation and The Center for Women’s Health & Wellness,\nauthor of a re
 cent article in International Breastfeeding Journal, an open access jo
 urnal, and the recipient of the fourth grant ($1,000) from UNCG’s Op
 en Access Publishing Support Fund\n \nSpoma Jovanovic, Communication 
 Studies, Editor of Partnerships: A Journal of Service-Learning and Civ
 ic Engagement, an open access journal published by UNCG using Open Jou
 rnal Systems (OJS) software\n \nRobert Stavn, Biology, author of a re
 cent article in Optics Express, an open access journal, and the recipi
 ent of the first grant ($1,000) from UNCG’s Open Access Publishing S
 upport Fund\n \nBill Karper, Kinesiology, a member of the Faculty Sen
 ate Scholarly Communications Committee\n\nFor more information visit h
