- Raising the Library's Impact Factor: A Case Study in Scholarly Publishing Literacy for Graduate Students McClellan, Samantha Detmering, Robert Martinez, George Johnson, Anna Marie Graduate Students Scholarship Writing for Publication Library Role Academic Libraries Educational Cooperation Library Research Library Instruction Workshops Information Literacy Pretests Posttests Scores Skill Development Library Services Graduate students across disciplines feel pressure to publish their scholarship, but they are often unsure how to go about it, partly due to a lack of explicit training in this area. This article discusses the collaborative development of a semester-long Publishing Academy, designed to promote knowledge of scholarly publishing and increase the library's impact within the graduate student community. Demonstrating how librarians can draw on their unique skills to build a niche service addressing unmet needs on campus, the project also puts into practice a broader conception of scholarly publishing literacy, which can be linked to the Association of College and Research Libraries Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education.
