All About Publishing and Open Access

This event is hosted by the UMD Libraries. This workshop is open to the MAPP and UMD Community—adjunct faculty, lecturers, PTK and TTK faculty, students, and alumni practitioners are welcome to participate.

The UMD Libraries will provide an overview of publishing journal articles and the Open Access ecosystem. 

Prioritizing and expanding the dissemination of research, practice, and scholarly work increases both the effectiveness and rate of knowledge transfer.  This is a hands-on workshop for anyone interested in publishing their research and practice.
