王 应 宽 2009-06-06 UTC-6 CST UMN,St Paul 英文刊 IJABE 编辑工作会议纪要 6 月 3 日 在明尼苏达大学召开了由主编和执行主编参加的英文刊 IJABE 编辑工作会议,会议议程包括期刊的现状、问题、对策以及筹备 6 月下旬美国农业与生物工程师学会在内华达州的里诺 (Reno) 召开学术年会( 2009 ASABE Annual International Meeting, Reno, Nevada, June 21-24 )之际召开 IJABE 编委会等内容。会议围绕议程展开,讨论了若干重大问题,并达成了共识,现纪要如下: 会议纪要 Editorial Staff Meeting Minutes Time: 13:30 PM, June 3, 2009 Place: Conference Room 201, BBE South Bldg, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, MN Attendees: Roger Ruan, Wang Yingkuan, Paul Chen Agenda (attached) 1. State of the journal The journal has published three issues of high quality papers. The journal is now indexed by Chemical Abstracts, CAB Abstracts, and CABI. The journal is growing fast. The entire editorial team including editors and editorial staff has been doing excellent jobs. The editorial office will prepare an annual report with detailed statistics of submissions, review, decision and published papers, indexing, performance of the OJS and website, competence of editors, and income and expenses. 2. Manuscript management system issues The journal uses OJS as the manuscript management platform. The system has some minor bugs but the main issue is that many of our editors and reviewers are not familiar with the system. We plan to further customize and debug the OJS and website to enhance functionality, improve their user-friendliness and to provide better user (editor, reviewer, and author) manuals 3. Web server issues The website has a number of problems and rooms for improvement. Many of the issues are related to the server performance. Readers outside of China often experience download failures. Some automatic actions regarding editorial are not executed as expected, causing some problems along the peer review line. This is very serious. One option is to set up a mirror site in the US maintained by editorial staff at St. Paul, USA. We have begun to explore the technical and financial feasibility of setting up the mirror site. 4. Peer review issues Our DEs and AEs have been doing a very good job in getting manuscripts reviewed in time. However there were some cases with long delay causing some complaints. While the OJS is somewhat to blame, some DEs and AEs are overloaded. Therefore we suggest adding DEs and AEs to some divisions if necessary. We also need to recruit peer reviewers. We also believe that all elements of the review process must follow the schedule to ensure a speedy review as promised. We will also implement some kind of alert process to remind editors and reviewers of any unfinished/ongoing reviews. 5. Manuscript issues High quality submission is the key to the well being and success of our journal. We need to drum up our efforts in attracting more high quality submissions. We should invite and encourage our colleagues and friends to submit their manuscripts to the journal. Now is a critical phase of our growing journal. We must do more to move our journal a big step foreword towards editor-market state as opposed to author-market.We also hope that each division would solicit 1-2 review articles and ensure 1-2 very high impact research papers every year. 6. Accounting issues We will provide more details regarding income and expenses when we have the financial report. In principles, the journal is operated on the not-for-profit basis. All incomes are used to cover legitimate operational expenses including mainly printing, web service, mailing, editorial staff, and office supplies. Any major changes must be approved by the boards of AOCABFE and CSAE, and the joint publication committee. We also need to collect page charges from authors who have not paid yet. 7. Fundraising activities There are opportunities for us to raise more funds to support the mission of the journal. One such opportunity is to sponsor or co-sponsor international conferences on general BAE areas or specific areas. A highly visible and high impact journal could be an attractive feature of technical conferences. 8. Promoting the journal We must do more to increase the visibility of the journal. DEs and AEs are the most efficient network to accomplish this. Only when DEs and AEs have a passion for the journal could we convince others and gain strong support. We have also designed a flyer to be distributed during the upcoming IFT and ASABE meetings and other meetings (attached). We are also working to seek indexing by EI Compendex and SCI. We expect to get in EI later this year. SCI requires a few years of publication history. We ask our DEs and AEs to cite papers published on IJABE. This will certainly help boost our visibility in SCI indexing database. 9. Editorial Board Meeting duringASABE Annual Meeting, Reno We wish to report and discuss some issues during the ASABE meeting. Yingkuan and Paul will be at the ASABE meeting (Roger will be travelling in China during that period). We intend to attend the AOC board meeting and hold a special meeting for IJABE editorial board and AOC publication committee. We like to schedule the joint journal meeting, discuss agendas, and inform all editorial members. 10. The meeting adjourned at 3pm. 会议议程 Editorial staff meeting Agenda 13:00 PM, June 3, 2009, Room 201, BioAgri Eng Bldg, UMN, St. Paul State of the Journal Improving Manuscript management and its use Improving IJABE website Peer review process: problems and solutions Attracting more high quality submissions, invited overviews Management, accounting system, collecting publication fees Fundraising Actions to promote IJABE and gain indexing by SCI, EI, etc. Meetings at ASABE in Reno 新设计的期刊宣传页 IJABE Flyer for Promotion
算起来已经来过深圳几回了。记得最早是 1998 年开全国植物学会,这个会是中国植物学 5 年一度的大事,来的人好多。仙湖植物园举办类似的会议,安排都很周到,这很不容易。深圳城市结构紧凑,觉得有些拥挤,人口据说已经达到 1400 万,快接近北京了,可见人口密度之大。深圳的饮食等第三产业很发达,基本还是广东类型,与广州很接近,消费较广州要高。来过几次,这次的气候是最好的,温度最合适。 这次来深圳主要开 JSE 编委会,一出来就是四五天,想想日子过得好快。这种会议真正为学报做事的少,不过就是提供老朋友见面的机会,同时很多也想看看有什么学科新进展或者大项目可以参加的。会议首先安排了一天的学术报告,有国际国内的一些学者做了报告,还算有些收获。 David Dilcher, James Doyle, Andrea Wolfe, Sean Graham 等,这些人是请来的,为他们花了钱,人家也确实提出了不少好的建议。 David 也是我的老朋友了,以前有过合作。 Jim 邮件来往过多次,但还是第一次见,由于研究兴趣相近,对其学术方面的贡献了解颇多,很有独到之处,很钦佩他,所以见面也聊了不少。另外两个洋鬼子第一次认识,了解不多。大多数国内的编委是自己花钱的,对学报发展思考也少,所以也没有多少建议,倒是提出了不少不同的意见,显示对学报发展的担忧。有商人刘提出应该将期刊商业化,科普化方向发展,拉广告,拉赞助,纯商业运作方式。是否会采纳就很难说了,毕竟对专业影响大。会后参观仙湖植物园和刘中健的兰花中心。仙湖变化很多,从化石林到阴生植物区,不过据说看到的还只是表面,很多好东西还没有拿出来啊。计划2010年去印尼开会。 好想家里的那个小家伙,时常浮现在脑海里:爸爸抱抱、爸爸扛着 今天中午的飞机,回去和爸爸玩吧,妈妈要上班。 2009 年 2 月 19 日 星期四于深圳
