Nordicom strengthens the status of Nordic academic books by partnering with Kriterium, a Swedish portal for peer review of Open Access books. Peer review is not just for journal articles anymore – authors publishing books with Nordicom will now have the opportunity to submit their manuscripts for expert peer review.
When conferences are going virtual, Nordicom is contributing to the events by presenting open access books at a virtual book table. The first virtual book table is set at the Nordic Media Days in Bergen.
Share your News with the Nordic Media Research Community
We welcome all contributions, including recommendations for upcoming events and ideas for new articles. The platform is still under construction and we also welcome your feedback as our work progresses.
NordMedia Network is a new digital platform devoted to the research community that for the past four decades has grown out of the NordMedia Conference. We hope it will serve as a source for inspiration, information and interaction for those interested in media and communication research in or about the Nordic region. By bringing our community closer together, the platform will also make the expertise of Nordic media scholars more accessible in larger society. NordMedia Network is powered by Nordicom and funded with support from the Nordic Council of Ministers. Join us by creating your profile today!
