I am interested in publishing an article- any tips on which journals to submit to?
Answer
We don't have a list of suggested journals to submit your paper, but can offer some tips:
- Are there websites/publications that you look to for inspiration? What are their submission guidelines?
- Magazines or other mass-market semi-professional magazines may be worth looking into.
- As you are researching, do you notice journal titles over and over? These may be worth looking into as they align with your research topics. If this hasn't already come up naturally, try using your paper's keywords and search within the library catalog and databases to see what journals are publishing articles that align with your topic.
- Each journal has its own specifications of what they are looking for/style to submit for consideration. This information can be found by going to the journal's homepage.
- The Center for Writing and Scholarship may have some helpful resources on their Sharepoint page. They also have some pre-recorded workshops:
All the best on your publishing journey!
