Biogeographers! We're posting occasionally to @jbiogeography as we transition to other accounts. On X follow publishing news @peeer295544, Biogeography News @Biogeograp86753. On BlueSky follow @peeer.bsky.social and @biogeographynews.bsky.social
Update: Put Ecological Monographs @ESAMonographs on your list of society-owned biogeography journals: strong editorial board with disciplinary expertise (e.g. Barreto, Belmaker, Borregaard, Carmona, Hof, Leclerc, Lessard, ...) #BetterPublishingjournalofbiogeographynews.or…
Lots of past JBI & DDI editors at the meeting who’ll be happy to answer any questions about #BetterPublishing and commitments to ask Wiley to make: journalofbiogeographynews.or… (see section ‘A’ near bottom of page).
Wondering what to make of #ibsprague2024 meeting sponsorship by @WileyGlobal: good for society & ECRs but seems like an attempt to whitewash their terrible record at J. Biogeography last year (and DDI 2019. Lots to remember & discuss #BetterPublishingqrco.de/beglzQ
(1/4) After a short hiatus, we’re delighted to be back online to support the biogeography community and #BetterPublishing. Our new mission: journaling about news in biogeography from any and all *society* owned journals publishing biogeographical research
(3/4) For more on our updated mission, repurposed social media, and how to get involved, read our blogpost at journalofbiogeographynews.or…. Be part of the change. Be part of a better future! #BetterPublishing
(4/4) To have your latest research from a society journal featured, or to make announcements about publishing or other news, see journalofbiogeographynews.or…. And tag @jbiogeography with your highlights in biogeography and #BetterPublishing.
