Publier la science, a novel newsletter on scientific publication

Because are many fast changes in scientific publishing, scientists have no time to adapt without help. Therefore we set up in 2013 an original newsletter entitled Publier la Science gathering breaking news and advices on publication, communication and edition. We defined topics of interest by survey of 220 scientists of the Environnement and Agronomy Division, INRA, France. Results show that major topics are writing, impact factors, open access, peer review, author rights, misconduct, publication models, meetings. We use those topics to find and select news with the Digimind software. The newsletter is then edited and published in Open Access at https://listes.inra.fr/sympa/d_read/veillecaps/ .
