Abstract
This chapter outlines standard procedures for publishing in a range of archaeological venues. Publication is the act of communicating information to the public. Making your work available to others who have an interest in it—i.e. publishing in some form the results of your fieldwork, analysis, and assessment—is an important ethical responsibility. You should write up and publish the results of your research as quickly as practicable, with the aim of informing as wide an audience as possible. The major publication venues for archaeologists are:
-
Technical (or consultancy) reports.
-
Community reports.
-
Academic books and journals.
Keywords
- Intellectual Property
- Indigenous People
- Aboriginal People
- Torres Strait Islander
- Australian Museum
These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
