The History and Philosophy of Geography Research Group would like to invite you to an informal online lunchtime session on May 15th, 13:00-14;00 (UK time), discussing issues around converting your PhD / postdoc into a monograph – whether to do it, how to do it, how to find a publisher, what the current open access requirements are, and much more. The session is primarily aimed at PhD and early career researchers, but everyone is welcome. You do not need to be a member of the HPGRG research group to attend – all are welcome.
We are very lucky to have three amazing scholars, with huge amounts of expertise in this area, leading the session:
1. Dr Ruth Craggs – Co-Editor of the RGS-IBG monograph series, and Reader in Political and Historical Geography at Kings College London.
2. Dr Anna Lawrence – Academic Publications Managing Editor of the RGS-IBG.
3. Prof. Peter Merriman – Editor of the Routledge Research in Culture, Space and Identity book series, and Professor in Human Geography at Aberystwyth University
The session will be informal and primarily driven by yourselves and any questions, thoughts, or worries you might have. The session does not assume any prior knowledge or experience in academic publishing.
