The final one is the marketing process, which consists of creating ads, suggesting exchange ads, setting up a web page, and sending out e-mail announcements of new issues to listservs. Most of all, you make sure that address changes are entered, payments are recorded, checks processed, unpaid subscribers nagged, and renewal forms are sent to all subscribers once a year. This consists of maintaining and updating a subscriber list. Another is the subscription management process, a much neglected and essential task for print journals. If yours is a print journal with paid subscribers, you then begin the distribution process. Distribution consists of printing subscriber labels, placing journals in mailers, and shipping journals to subscribers. Next is the production process, the actual physical task of putting a journal together. This process starts as soon as you have accepted an article for publication. It consists of preparing illustrations, copyediting manuscripts, insuring authors see corrections to their articles, typesetting all corrections, scanning illustrations, laying out the journal (either for print or electronically), proofreading, insuring authors see the proofs, typesetting all corrections, sending electronic copy to the printer or webmaster, setting the correct front and back matter, and reviewing bluelines or the web page. You will also need to identify a good printer or web hoster, set up a subscription database, and design the general layout of the journal.

The first is the set up process, in which you make a variety of decisions about your new journal, such as its name who will be the faculty editor, managing editor, copyeditor, layout artist, designer, and board members what style manual you will use and what the scope of your content shall be. There are many processes involved in publishing a peer-reviewed journal. The goal of the information below was to aid editors in improving their journals financially, technically, and academically. At one point I thought I would write a book on the topic, but I haven’t gotten around to that. So, I decided to put the notes from the lectures I used to give on the topic. I used to teach workshops to graduate students, faculty members, and university staff on all aspects of publishing the academic journal, but I don’t anymore. But, what if you want to run one yourself, out of your department or university? Run correctly, journals can earn quite a bit of money for your department or association. Of course, most journals are launched by academics but run by larger publishers, such as SAGE or Duke.

The number of academic journals-electronic and print-has exploded over the last decade, yet instruction on how to run an academic journal is virtually nonexistent.
