The 5th
Workshop on Innovations in
Scholarly
Communication will be held at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland:
From
Wednesday
18th to Friday 20th April 2007.
The OAI series of workshops is one of the biggest international
meetings of technical repository-developers, library Open Access policy
formulators, and the funders and researchers that they serve. The
programme contains a mix of practical tutorials given by experts in the
field, presentations from cutting-edge projects and research, posters
from the community, breakout discussion groups, and an intense social
programme which has helped to build a strong network amongst previous
participants. The event is almost unique in bringing together these
scholarly communication communities and is proud to continue this
tradition with the OAI5 workshop in 2007.
Note for regular participants: the workshop will now fall Wednesday to
Friday and NOT Thursday to Saturday as previously.
Further information will be added to this web site in November,
including further programme details, a registration form, and a call
for contributions.
The workshop takes place roughly every second year in alternation
with its sister Open
Scholarship Conference and the Nordic Conference on
Scholarly Communication.
