The Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association, OASPA, will be holding the 7th Conference on Open Access Scholarly Publishing (COASP) this year at the Trippenhuis at The Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) in Amsterdam, September 15-17, 2015.
Now established as a key event in the scholarly publishing calendar, the conference is directed towards the interests of professional publishing organisations, independent publishers and university presses, librarians, university administrators, funding organisations, policy makers and other stakeholders. Participants will have the opportunity to hear from many leading figures within the open access publishing environment and to discuss recent developments, innovations and best practices within the industry.
The Program Committee have set aside one of the sessions within the conference program as a Show & Tell opportunity for showcasing exciting new products, projects, ideas or initiatives relating to open access publishing as this proved to be such a success last year. Six slots are available and organisations are invited to submit a proposal for a 10 minute presentation.
All proposals should be submitted by May 31, 2015 at the latest to info@oaspa.org. The Program Committee will then review the suggestions and make a final decision by the end of June.
Further announcements will be made shortly when registrations for the event are open and the preliminary program is available.
