Preparing for Publication
Taylor and Francis /Routledge contribute to publishing workshop in in Cameroon
Janet Remmington, 2011
An essential step to effective research communication is publication. This may seem obvious, but preparing your research for publication is not necessarily an easy thing to do — it can be a long and difficult process requiring numerous submissions and rewrites at the best of times. However, it is also something that benefits greatly through institutional, peer, and publisher support structures and resources. Recently, Taylor and Francis/Routledge contributed to a publishing workshop in Cameroon that aimed to make this process that much clearer and simpler.

Cambridge University Press’ low bandwidth mobile access point – CJOm

This has helped to speed up download times and make their content easier to use.
