How can smaller-sized journal publishers get more out of software?: New report roundtable
Watch the recording on demand!
Technology has the potential to supercharge the efforts of mission-driven small and medium-sized journal publishers by enabling them to more effectively compete with larger organizations. What’s needed to further that vision?
In 2025, Scholastica and Maverick Publishing Consultants surveyed small-to mid-sized publishers to gain deeper insight into their software needs. During this webinar, members of our teams sat down with survey participants to discuss solutions to tackle the top technical challenges and priorities surfaced in the final report, including:
• Shifting software from a cost-center into an engine for operational efficiency
• Criteria for weighing configuration vs. customization in software decisions to mitigate development costs
• Assessing the ROI of AI automation solutions, with a focus on research integrity checks
