Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) has announced a partnership with The Frankfurt Book Fair. This year at the fair, CCC will help shine a spotlight on the market pressures driving the publishing industry, including big data, open access, research, technological innovation and copyright.
As part of the partnership, CCC will participate in talks throughout the week, including 'Getting on the Road to Intelligent Content: No Time Like the Present,' scheduled for October 10, 11:30 -12:00 at the Education Stage (Hall 4.2 C 94). Agile workflows and easy access to targeted, relevant content have obvious benefits for publishers who have long dreamed of repurposing their catalogues for markets around the world. Transforming content to become 'intelligent,' however, is no easy task. In this presentation, Carl Robinson, Head of Consulting, Ixxus, and Renee Swank, Senior Director, Sales, Ixxus, will propose a pragmatic, sensible approach to making the most of technologies without significant upfront investment.
Publisher Voices Raised For Copyright will feature a conversation between Michael Healy and Michiel Kolman, President of the International Publishers Association, will address some of the publishing industry's most pressing questions, including: What are publishers doing to ensure their voices are being heard in Europe, Asia, North America and elsewhere? Who is helping publishers to defend their business and creative interests? How can you make certain your voice gets heard? The event is scheduled for October 10, 14:30 - 15:00 at the Academic & Business Information Stage (Hall 4.2 N 101).
Open Access is transforming scholarly journal publishing, yet the looming size of the journal ecosystem has thrown into deep shadow an equally remarkable transformation in scholarly books. A panel discussion, Open Access Monographs, 10 October, 15:30 - 16:00, at the Education Stage (Hall 4.2 C 94), featuring Brian O'Leary, Executive Director, Book Industry Study Group, Carl Robinson, Head of Consulting, Ixxus and David Worlock, Publishing Analyst and Co-Chair of Outsell's Leadership Programs, will discuss the viability, models and the unique needs of OA books compared to OA journals.
"Plan S" was announced just weeks ago and now everyone in scholarly publishing will talk about it at Frankfurt Book Fair. An initiative of 11 European national research funding organisations, "Plan S" puts pressure on Open Access publishing business models by capping article fees, ending embargoes and withdrawing support for "hybrid" OA journals. A panel of publishing leaders and expert analysts offers insights to help prepare for "Plan S" and get smart about the next wave of change in Open Access publishing. Get Smart About "Plan S", scheduled for October 11, 09:00 - 09:30, at the Academic & Business Information Stage (Hall 4.2 N 101), will feature Tim Britton, Managing Director, Open Research Group at Springer Nature, and others.
