From Dissertation to Book: Navigating the Publication Process

About

The UCR Library is inviting the UCR community to attend Authors Alliance and UC Berkeley Library’s fall webinar series for new academic authors.

The virtual workshop series provides authors with the legal and professional frameworks necessary to navigate the modern publishing landscape. Sessions will address the complexities of copyright and generative AI, practical guidance for publishing a scholarly book, and the careful use of metrics to assess and enhance impact. All events are free and all authors are welcome to attend.

From Dissertation to Book: Navigating the Publication Process

Hear from a panel of experts—an acquisitions editor, a first-time book author, and an author rights expert—about the process of turning your dissertation into a book. You’ll come away from this panel discussion with practical advice about revising your dissertation, writing a book proposal, approaching editors, signing your first contract, and navigating the peer review and publication process.
