As a Virginia Sea Grant researcher, advisory specialist, educator or communicator, you are responsible for reporting the results of your Sea Grant projects and activities to as wide an audience as possible. In addition to meeting Congressionally mandated reporting requirements, your results may be appropriate for publication in research journals, trade publications, magazines and newsletters, and in the media. We hope that you will find these publications policy guidelines helpful as you share the results of your work. Mandatory Distribution: Virginia Sea Grant is required to distribute your publications to the National Sea Grant Library, NOAA Central Library, and NOAA Sea Grant. We also retain copies of each VASG publication. Following distribution, the publication will be listed in Virginia Sea Grant's publicationas database. Upon receipt of reprints or copies, the principal author(s) must forward 10 hard copies of the reprint or publication to the VA Sea Grant publications coordinator for mandatory distribution to the above offices. If a PDF version is available to the public, the electronic file or URL should also be submitted. Please send abstracts of graduate student theses and dissertations, as they are included in Virginia Sea Grant's mandatory publications distribution. Sea Grant Acknowledgment: The following acknowledgment of Sea Grant support must accompany all reports on work carried out wholly or in part with funding from Virginia Sea Grant: "This work is a result of research sponsored in part by NOAA Office of Sea Grant, U.S. Department of Commerce, under Grant No. ______________ to the Virginia Sea Grant Program. The U.S. Government is authorized to produce and distribute reprints for governmental purposes notwithstanding any copyright notation that may appear hereon." Please contact the VA Sea Grant Assistant Director to obtain the appropriate grant number. With the exception of peer-reviewed journal articles, the publications coordinator should be notified when a product is nearing completion. You will need to provide the title, author(s), and an estimated date when the publication will be available for distribution. The communications coordinator will assign a Virginia Sea Grant (VSG) number to your publication. This VSG number should appear on the cover or title page, and we strongly suggest that you include both Virginia Sea Grant and NOAA logos on the cover or credits page of your publication. These may be downloaded below. Please send us copies of all news releases issued in connection with your Virginia Sea Grant work, and keep us informed of new items stemming from your Sea Grant activities. If you see any newspaper, newsletter or magazine article that cites your work or mentions Sea Grant, we would appreciate a clipping or photocopy of it for our websites and our files. Logos: When at all possible, please include logos for both Virginia Sea Grant and NOAA. Contact your communications liaison if you need logos in print or web format, or download logos here.
