SST PUBLICATION POLICY

The Seafood Science and Technology (SST) Society encourages and supports the exchange of technical information and experience concerning all aspects of seafood and aquacultured product quality and safety. The topics can be basic or applied sciences, technical reviews, actual experiences, or recommendations and position statements. Authors may include representatives from government, academic or private sectors in either domestic or international settings. Students are especially encouraged to participate.

Selection of presentations for the annual SST meeting is based on brief abstracts that are printed in the annual program agenda. The submissions are not edited and represent the author’s original text. Following the annual meeting, SST has always strived to preserve the proceedings in a bound manual of papers. These papers are voluntary submissions by the respective authors and they are not subject to peer review. In some instances, the authors choose not to submit their paper due to time constraints, intentions to publish elsewhere, or other personal reasons.

The meeting abstracts are compiled and reproduced without formal reviews.  Content is the sole responsibility of the authors.  The Society intent is to compile preliminary results from ongoing research and advisory services to facilitate communication between regional investigators, industries, and government entities.  Reproduction of a presentation in the final proceedings does not preclude supplementation and further publication work in reviewed journals and similar productions.

In 2000 the SST Society introduced this dedicated web site, which will contain all previous and future proceedings. All future SST proceedings will be posted here on a new ‘Extended Abstract’ format (see Extended Abstract Instructions). This approach reduces time constraints and conflicting publication concerns for the authors, while still maintaining the SST intent to preserve the annual proceedings. This approach allows for more cost effective filing and distribution of the proceedings with color graphics and illustrations.

‘Extended Abstracts’ allow use of common PowerPoint or similar formatted presentations that are typically presented during the meetings. Likewise, it allows preservation of the information with color illustrations and graphics. This approach encourages submissions by the authors by reducing the time to prepare formal papers without compromising their intentions to publish the full or final versions of their work in an established peer reviewed journal. The submissions will simply be converted for placement on the website whereby they can be accessed and printed on demand with proper credits for the authors and society.
