Value of Academic Publishing

The Publishers Association has released a new animation that shows how academic publishers add value at different stages of the journal publishing process.

The video showcases how publishers help make research accessible, discoverable and useable for everyone, explaining the process and the publisher’s role in it. 

It outlines six main stages of the journal publishing journey, demonstrating how academic publishers support researchers to validate results, present them effectively, share findings among groups of readers and communicate them to the wider world. 

The animation aims to shine a light on how academic publishers add value to research every day around the world and underpin the knowledge economy.
