The Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers (ALPSP) has announced that Amy Brand, VP Academic & Research Relations, VP North America, Digital Science, will be the keynote speaker at the ALPSP Conference. Her presentation is entitled ‘Innovation and its place in the changing scholarly communication landscape.’
For many publishers, innovation has been something that comes at them rather than something they drive. But increasingly, scholarly publishers are inventing and investing in creative new services, and finding new ways to support the research enterprise. Amy Brand will focus on how innovation can benefit scholars and scholarship and highlight some transformative technologies and collaborations that are improving the dissemination, discoverability, and networking of scholarly information, as well as the research process and research administration more broadly.
The ALPSP Conference runs from September 10-12 at the Park Inn Hotel & Conference Centre, London Heathrow, UK. Interested parties may visit www.alpspconference.org to check out the full programme and for registration details.
