Abstract
Abstract:Academic blogging is now a widely used medium for scholarly communication. A substantial body of literature exists on the potential opportunities and challenges that blogging affords to scholars, yet the role of blog editors in facilitating research dissemination and public engagement remains largely overlooked. This paper draws on insights from the development of academic blogs by the London School of Economics between 2010 and 2020. It discusses the demands on blog editors and sets forth a framework for academic institutions and scholars to support editors in their efforts to realize the benefits of academic blogging.
摘要:学术博客是目前广泛使用的学术传播媒介。关于博客给学者带来的潜在机遇和挑战,已有大量文献存在,但博客编辑在促进研究传播和公众参与方面的作用在很大程度上被忽视了。本文借鉴了伦敦经济学院(London School of Economics)在2010年至2020年间学术博客发展的见解。讨论了对博客编辑的需求,并为学术机构和学者提供了一个框架,以支持编辑实现学术博客的利益。
期刊介绍:
For more than 40 years, the Journal of Scholarly Publishing has been the authoritative voice of academic publishing. The journal combines philosophical analysis with practical advice and aspires to explain, argue, discuss, and question the large collection of new topics that continually arise in the publishing field. JSP has also examined the future of scholarly publishing, scholarship on the web, digitization, copyright, editorial policies, computer applications, marketing, and pricing models. It is the indispensable resource for academics and publishers that addresses the new challenges resulting from changes in technology and funding and from innovations in production and publishing.
