During this session perspective authors will learn how one librarian wrote and published articles, as a sole author, co-author and with a group of authors. Creative opportunities and projects abound on a college campus; the harder part is converting these projects into publishable material.

We will also identify publishing opportunities: both "traditional" journals and open access titles and provide links for more information.
