Your Voice, Your Career: EMP's Getting Published

As the museum field grows we continually grapple with the changing role of museums. When seeking new strategies we rely on the scholars to provide insight and strategies, these scholarly perspectives continually change the field.

Emerging professionals are also emerging scholars and our voices provide invaluable perspectives that can shape the future of the field. It is critical that emerging museum professionals push out new ideas, present new research and share their experiences with the field at large. The question remains, where do we start?

Join SEMP in a panel conversation with published scholars, journal editors and bloggers to explain what editors are seeking, how publishers select articles, how they communicate opportunities for publication and the role of blogging in the publishing sphere.

Together we will develop strategies for getting our work considered, as well as develop relationships with scholars and editors. The panel will be followed with a Q & A session.
