Book a short workshop
The short workshops offered by the publication services department cover important topics related to publishing, such as the basics of academic publishing, processes for publishing articles and books, Open Access, legal issues (image and copyright law, Creative Commons licences, publishing contracts), funding for Open Access publishing of articles and books, publishing opportunities at the university (publication server unipub, library publishing), quality issues (journal selection criteria, predatory publishing), visibility (Academic Search Engine Optimization) and the basics of bibliometrics.
The short workshops can be booked individually and free of charge for courses, institute or faculty events and project and research groups. They last between 30 and 45 minutes but can be adapted to suit the time available. On request, several topics can be combined into a longer workshop - for example, two or three topics can be combined to create a complete 90-minute unit for your course.

Anthology "Publikationsberatung an Universitäten"
- Here you will find supplementary materials and collections of links relating to the volume "Publikationsberatung an Universitäten. Ein Praxisleitfaden zum Aufbau publikationsunterstützder Services" (Bielefeld, transcript, 2020), https://doi.org/10.14361/9783839450727. The collection of materials was compiled by the editors and does not claim to be complete. The editors aimed to make a reasonable and clear selection rather than a collection of as many links and documents as possible. Many of the documents were created by the University of Graz publication services department for their own advisory activities, lectures and workshops. Materials provided by the anthology authors are marked accordingly. Download as a ZIP file.
