Intrusive Feature 1a - La Natura e la distribuzione dell'editoria in archeologia

Welcome to the first special episode of the New Brunswick Archaeology Podcast! This week we were joined by Dr. Bill Farley, Associate Professor of Anthropology at Southern Connecticut State University to discuss publishing in archaeology. We talk about why archaeologists publish, what the process of publishing involves, and offer some advice for students or early career folks looking to publish their research. Bill has published in a number of journals, and is the editor of Northeast Historical Archaeology. He also is active in using videogames to teach about archaeology, so check out his YouTube channel @archaeologytube, or find him on twitter @ArchaeologyGame.Time Stamps6:08 Why publish? 9:55 What is peer-review? 19:10 What is a good source? 29:36 - Conferences 34:19 The publication lifecycle 41:04 What makes a good peer-reviewer? 49:55 Grey literature 56:25 Choosing where to publish 67:00 Follow the red thread 75:11 What is an author? 84:57 Collaborate! 94:43 Ethics in publishingBill’s Faculty Page at SCSU: https://www.southernct.edu/directory/farleyw1Bill’s YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC07CjzGSWgY5lAdWZd_AmbwSome papers we discussed:Fable, John M., William A.
