The Society for Scholarly Publishing (SSP) will host six pre-meeting seminars on June 1 in Vancouver, ahead of the 2016 Annual Meeting. The seminars will be split between a morning session, 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and an afternoon session, 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., allowing attendees to participate in two seminars prior to the opening plenary.
The pre-conference is a great way to take a deep dive into a subject in a more close-knit setting. Topics this year include predatory publishing, sustainable Open Access publishing models, data publishing, data interchange, global expansion case studies, and user experience design. Sign up for the seminar sessions is available as an add-on during registration for the Annual Meeting.
The sessions cover a wide range of topics. Morning seminars are offered covering predatory publishing, machine readable data formats, and open access, whereas the afternoon seminar sessions will examine data publishing, international publishing, and user experience design. More information about the pre-meeting seminars can be found on the SSP website.
