The Future Of Publishing - Your Feedback Matters To Us

Survey introduction

With changing technologies and ways to publish, authors are finding different ways to disseminate their research.

Your feedback matters to us.

We hope you will take a few minutes to tell us about your experience and what role publishers have in the future with your research. Help us identify trends and insights to guide the academic publishing industry in supporting your future research. Publishers we talk about in this survey relate to not-for-profit, society and commercial publishers. The first part of the survey is the most important but we have added some more questions to help us with feedback about your publishing experience, which you can complete if you like.
