AGENDA: CCC Town Meeting Event – Open Access: The Next Wave
October 15, 2015
Segment 1: Authors, Front and Center, 9:00 a.m.
A high-level discussion that looks at the shift underway in scholarly publishing to an author-centric world, of which OA is one part– albeit an important one– with Melinda Kenneway, co-founder, Kudos, a web-based service that helps researchers and their institutions and funders to maximize the visibility and impact of their published articles. This one-on-one “keynote” interview examines how the ongoing power shift is giving rise to new concerns for publishers as well as new value-added services that attract and retain the highest quality contributors.
Segment 2: Compliance and reporting for OA, 9:30 a.m.
Publishers juggle many compliance and reporting responsibilities to maintain a robust and transparent Open Access publishing program. VAT compliance, funder compliance and institutional reporting are the source of many sleepless nights for publishers – but does it have to be this way? Indeed, many have realized that strong compliance and reporting are important drivers in establishing strong institutional and funder relationships. Come join us in a conversation with
