<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Directors, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">During the Specialist meeting, there was a call to form an ad hoc committee to review the Extension publication policy. Several Specialists have agreed to serve on the ad hoc committee.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t think this would take much time.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am asking if any County faculty or staff would like to serve on this committee.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If so, please let me know.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The policy as it stands is as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Under Chapter 7, Section 7.03, 7.03.01 – Cooperative Extension Publication Procedure.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">First authorship is restricted to UA employees. Classified staff must have an extension faculty member as a co-author. Students may be able to publish as a co-author if an Extension faculty member is a co-author
– this is at the discretion of the Extension Publications Editor (EPE). A non-faculty author may be first author, however the faculty member will be listed as the contact person and all correspondence, both prior to and post publication, will be to the faculty
member. The faculty member is responsible for informing co-authors. Non-UA people may be authors, but not first authors and all correspondence and contact is via the UA faculty member.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in">An individual must make a substantial, original contribution to the scholarly work to be considered an author.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in">For older publications being updated, the primary credit will be given to the most recent revision author with an acknowledgment to the original author.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Publications which contain substantial material from another publication(s) are considered to be “adapted” and therefore will not be assigned an AZ number or authorship. The submitting faculty will be listed as
the contact and given credit as “adapted by …” The publication may still be listed on the publications website.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in">If a first time publication is published after an author has retired or left the university, s/he may remain an author, but a current Extension faculty member must also be an author and will be listed as the contact
person.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please share with your faculty and consider serving yourself.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
