Scholarly Communication Toolkit

Scholarly Communication is the process of conducting research, scholarship and other academic compositions and pursuits, and sharing the results to the wider academic community: from creation, to dissemination, to preservation of knowledge, for teaching, learning, research, and scholarship.

Through the SBU Center for Scholarly Communication, faculty and students have resources, services and librarian expertise relating to scholarly communication, from the beginning of the scholarly communication cycle through publishing and dissemination.

For more information, resources and services, see the Center for Scholarly Communication site.

To schedule a consultation or get support, contact Mona Ramonetti, Head of Scholarly Communication, mona.ramonetti@stonybrook.edu.
