Description:

Academic Writing and Publishing is a one-hour NASIG webinar
specifically geared to academic librarians who wish to know more about
what it takes to get published. It will focus on professional writing
for librarians who are expected to do writing/research for their job
or are interested for other reasons (if not required). We will cover
the peer-review process and types of scholarly writing, tips on
breaking into the publishing realm, learning the ropes, what to avoid,
and will reserve time for specific questions from participants. The
webinar is adapted from a NASIG preconference that was held at the
2016 conference in Albuquerque, NM.

Maria Collins is the Head of Acquisitions & Discovery at North
Carolina State University Libraries and has served in a variety of
roles at NCSU for over ten years.  She provided oversight for the
