Digital publishing and the Research Catalogue 

I provide consultancy work related to digital publishing on the Research Catalogue platform. As a web-developer, a former advisor at the Norwegian Academy of Music and with an extensive background from various institutional environments, service on several levels is offered:

  • Research publication: exposition design, guidance, layout planning, and more 
  • Administrative services: reception of research, peer review assignments, workflow, and more 
  • Support on both administrative & author levels
  • Template development in CSS3
  • Workshops, for administrators and authors

Services for both institutions and individuals are provided, either in collaboration with an institutional administrator or the author. I can handle the entire production workflow from creating and designing the exposition, to the administrative side of the publication process.

About

jonas@jonassjovaag.no

+47 928 42 902

I am a web designer and part-owner of Weblance.no, a former advisor at the Norwegian Academy of Music (NMH), and a PhD candidate in Artistic Research at the University of Agder. For over a decade I have worked as a freelance consultant for institutions across Norway and Europe in the field of digital publishing on the Research Catalogue platform.

My background spans web development, academic publishing infrastructure, and practice-based research. I have extensive experience supporting both authors and administrators through the full production chain – from exposition design and layout to peer review workflows and final publication.

During my time at NMH I led the development of a new exposition type for the Research Catalogue, enabling a more flexible and contemporary approach to online academic publishing. The module supports responsive layouts, document import, journal creation within the platform, and customisable templates adaptable to individual or institutional needs. I have also developed two ECTS-accredited courses – RC901 and RC902 – currently taught at the University of Bergen and several other Norwegian and European institutions.

My approach to RC publishing remains hands-on and technically current. For projects that demand it, I build expositions entirely in HTML – giving full control over layout, interaction, and visual identity beyond what standard platform tools allow.

The Research Catalogue is the primary platform for artistic research publication internationally, operated by the Society for Artistic Research, and the platform of choice for most institutions in the field.
