Abstract
The paper
examined the essential requirements for maintaining publishing standards as
well as global visibility of research scholars, using Nigerian Library and
Information Science (LIS) professionals as a focus. The paper x-rayed the basic
concepts of the study, extensively looked into the state of publishing and
maintaining global visibility by LIS professionals in Nigeria and proferred the
key elements for positively changing the scenario, which among others involve
using standard numbers in publishing like International Standard Book Number
(ISBN), International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) and Digital Object
Identifier (DOI), among others, being mindful of what is published, where it is
published and who publishes ii. The paper equally stated that scholars should
maintain research integrity by ensuring that their publications are clear,
honest, accurate, complete, balanced. not misleading, selective or ambiguous in
reporting, while journal editors and publishers generally, equally must ensure
the integrity of the research literature. Thus, LIS professionals must maximise
the benefits of publishing, maintain publishing standards, have quality
publications, attract the right audience and ensure the eventual influence of
their publishing on global visibility.
