Quantifying Asia’s Rise in Submission Rates to Academic Publishers

Intellectual Property & Science released its new report affirming global submission rates for academic journals are at their highest level in six years.
The ScholarOne Manuscripts report, Global Publishing: Changes in submission trends and the impact on scholarly publishers, confirmed submission rates are not only rising overall, but are increasing significantly from emerging nations, bringing a new influx of content from a diverse research base. Data suggested that traditionally strong submitters like the United States, Japan and Europe are being outpaced by nations like China and India.
Along with a growing global research base, higher overall submission rates present both a challenge and an opportunity for publishers to keep pace with growing amounts of content. To see two ways where we found success in meeting rising demands, read the press release.
