Where to Publish
The decision on where to submit a manuscript for publication is an important decision. Especially for early-career authors working to meet their professional goals such as tenure review, grant funding, and to reach the audience that would recognize the quality of their work. Authors may follow many paths in deciding where to publish their research. There are a number of clues to the quality of a journal, publisher or conference.
