CALIS and IOP discussed a range of topics, including STM publishing industry issues, such as open access, usage and demand, and IOP's publishing activity in China. The group of librarians from 11 universities was led by Professor Zhu Qiang, Director of Peking University Library and Executive Member of the Library Society of China.
The CALIS consortium provides services to 1251 academic libraries and 792 journal content users in China. It has four category offices and seven regional offices.
