The so-called 'Springer author's workshop' is a session of about one hour dedicated to young researchers willing to learn about publishing scientific research. Some of the issues usually discussed are:

• Traditional publishing versus Open Access
• How to choose a journal
• How to build your paper
• What are IF and other indexes, and how they work
• How to publish a book (with Springer)
• Some tools offered for free by Springer and specifically addressed to authors, like Author Academy, authormapper.com, springerexemplar.com, or SpringerLink.com
• Questions and open discussion

The Springer author's workshop will be held at the Paraninfo of the Faculty of Science and Technology in Leioa, on Tuesday July 1 from 18:30 to 19:30.

Alfio Quarteroni (Springer author and Editor-in-Chief of several books series and journals) will join the workshop as invited speaker.
