Introduction:

Open Access (OA) publishing ensures that all published peer-reviewed research articles are universally, freely accessible through Internet in a readable format and immediately deposited in an international OA repository such as PubMed Central. Authors/copyright owners must irrevocably grant to anyone the right to use, reproduce or disseminate the research article in its entirety or in part in perpetuity.

Goals:

This interactive workshop is designed for psychiatric researchers to increase their knowledge about open access publishing and ascertain its potential benefits for researchers and authors.

Method:

The workshop will contain a number of interactive and didactic components and will presented in three parts:

Overview:

What is OA? How are OA journals created? What are the benefits of OA for psychiatrists? How are authors attracted? What peer-review processes ensure immediate PubMed listing? What other indexing services, tracking and citation statistics apply?

Preparing Manuscripts: tools, tips and techniques.

Hands-on session on manuscript submission covering manuscript organisation; artwork for figures/tables; file formats (size; compression, and quality; bitmaps versus vector images; suitable tools for creating figures and choice of fonts.
