Abstract
The lecture will discuss the publishing process from the perspective of the editor. It will touch upon Chemistry Europe as the publishing association of 16 European chemical societies publishing a family of high-quality scholarly chemistry journals such as Chemistry – A European Journal, ChemCatChem and ChemSusChem, how the Editorial Office works (including what editors look for in manuscripts and what they consider important when evaluating them) and on recent developments in Open Science and Open Access. Questions on scholarly publishing are very welcome!
