This is just to let you know that as part of City’s Festival of Research, my colleague Jane Secker and I will be running a game called the Publishing Trap – tomorrow, 12th May, 3-4:30pm.

This interactive session is based on an educational boardgame, called the Publishing Trap, which has been shifted to playing online as a team game. The session will help you to navigate the  policies on copyright and open access publishing and identify the implications for your own research. It will also enable you to make decisions about the best way to communicate your ideas and build on the creations of others in the context of shifting funding conditions and the changing world of scholarly publishing. Find out more about the Publishing Trap but sign up for a fun way of learning about scholarly communication as an early career researcher.

The workshop takes 1.5 hours and is played using break-out rooms on Zoom.
