Are you looking for ways to connect with industry colleagues beyond another video call?

📍We're excited to announce the return of ISMTE Local Groups! These informal gatherings bring together editorial office and scholarly publishing professionals in their local communities for conversation, collaboration, and connection.

Some of the best professional relationships begin over a casual coffee, a shared challenge, or an unplanned conversation. Local meetups create space for those organic interactions that help us learn, grow our networks, and feel connected to our profession.

The Cincinnati Scholarly Publishing meet-up is now an official ISMTE local group! The next meeting is Tuesday, September 1 and is open to anyone (ISMTE membership not required). If you work in or support scholarly publishing and want to connect with others in the area, we'd love to see you there. Contact Meghan McDevitt for more information.
