From Dissertation to Book: Navigating the Publication Process

Register

This is the third event in our Fall Workshop Series for academic authors, a collaboration between Authors Alliance and UC Berkeley Office of Scholarly Communication and Information Policy. This series is geared towards new academic authors, but all authors are welcome to attend. Please feel free to share with your classmates and colleagues.

Hear from a panel of experts—an acquisitions editor, a first-time book author, and an author rights expert—about the process of turning your dissertation into a book. You’ll come away from this panel discussion with practical advice about revising your dissertation, writing a book proposal, approaching editors, signing your first contract, and navigating the peer review and publication process.
