The 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗿𝘀 (𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗘), in collaboration with the 𝗔𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗼 𝗱𝗲 𝗡𝗮𝗴𝗮 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀, successfully hosted the second installment of the 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗲𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲–𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟳. Held on September 28, 2026, from 4:30 PM - 6:00 PM via Google Meet, the session featured 𝗠𝗿. 𝗝𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗝𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗟. 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗰𝗼, 𝗜, the Director of the ADNU Press, as the resource speaker.

The webinar "𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗣𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁: 𝗔𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗼 𝗱𝗲 𝗡𝗮𝗴𝗮 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗣𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀" provided an essential walkthrough for researchers and creative writers eager to transform their raw manuscripts into fully realized, published books. Mr. Chancoco highlighted that the multidisciplinary press welcomes diverse materials, including textbooks, academic journals, literary anthologies, and e-books. He discussed the submission checklist, process flowchart, copyright, and author benefits, explaining that submitted manuscripts are evaluated through an editorial blind review based on marketability (40%), novelty or originality (40%), and "Bikolness" (20%). To apply, prospective authors must submit their manuscripts along with a letter of intent and an updated CV. The press enforces rigorous professional ethics by strictly prohibiting plagiarism, historical revisionism, and simultaneous submissions. The webinar concluded with a question-and-answer session, during which Mr. Chancoco addressed participants' inquiries.

This free webinar was attended by 𝟰𝟴 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀, consisting of 11 from the ADNU community and 37 non-Ateneans. The ADNU cohort included 5 students, 2 faculty members, and 4 staff. The non-Atenean group comprised 12 faculty members, 20 students, and 5 staff. Geographically, 12 of these external participants were from Metro Manila, 16 from other parts of Luzon, 4 from the Visayas, 3 from Mindanao, and 2 were international attendees from Sri Lanka and Malaysia. This initiative aligns with 𝗨𝗡 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗚𝗼𝗮𝗹 𝟰 (𝗤𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻) by breaking down the step-by-step process from pitching a manuscript to final printing, directly equipping researchers, writers, and students with the knowledge needed to publish scholarly and cultural works.

🎬 And that’s a wrap for Webinar #1! 🎬

𝑨𝒗𝒐𝒊𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒐𝒏 𝑷𝒊𝒕𝒇𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝑱𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝑨𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒍𝒆 𝑺𝒖𝒃𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏

The 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗿𝘀 (𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗘) officially launched its 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗲𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲–𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟳 with its first session on September 3, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM via Google Meet. Serving as the first installment of an eight-part series, the webinar featured 𝗗𝗿. 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗮 𝗙. 𝗙𝗮𝗷𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗼, the Dean of RACE, as the distinguished keynote speaker. Dr. Fajardo led an insightful discussion titled "𝗔𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝗣𝗶𝘁𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻," offering researchers practical strategies to navigate the complex academic publishing landscape.

During the session, Dr. Fajardo reframed desk rejections as valuable opportunities for growth, advising authors to use editorial feedback objectively to refine their work. To proactively prevent these rejections, she recommended targeting journals directly from the manuscript's own reference list and thoroughly auditing a journal’s aims and scope before submission. She also noted that ignoring basic author formatting guidelines is one of the most common and easily avoidable mistakes leading to immediate rejection. Finally, the webinar stressed the importance of identifying and avoiding predatory journals. Dr. Fajardo warned that these deceptive platforms compromise professional credibility, bypass authentic peer review, and trick researchers into signing away their copyrights.

This free webinar was attended by 𝟯𝟳 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀, 28 of whom were from the ADNU community, comprising 17 students, 6 faculty members, and 5 staff. The remaining 9 participants were non-Ateneans: 5 from Camarines Sur, 1 from Albay, 1 from Rizal, 1 from Antique, and 1 from Pampanga. Among these external participants, 3 were faculty members, and 6 were students. This initiative aligns with 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗚𝗼𝗮𝗹 𝟰: 𝗤𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 by building the capacity of researchers to successfully navigate the academic publishing landscape. By guiding scholars through these common pitfalls, the session enhances the global reach of high-quality research and empowers academics to effectively contribute to shared scientific knowledge.
