The International Council for Scientific and Technical Information (ICSTI) will organise its third webinar themed 'Enabling Innovations for Researcher Workflows and Scholarly Communication' in close partnership with NISO. This webinar is scheduled for October 26, 2016, from 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time USA).
Digital network technologies have driven the globalisation of the scientific community and transformed the way in which research is conducted and communicated. This webinar will focus on the usage of the innovative tools that have been developed to facilitate information sharing and collaboration in this changing environment. Presenters will address the need for consensus among stakeholders in differing scientific communities on the principles needed to guide implementation positively to impact research practice, openness, efficiency and reproducibility, and quality of outcomes.
All are invited to join the event which will feature : Jeroen Bosman, Scholarly Communications and Geoscience Librarian, Utrecht University ; Bianca Kramer, Life Sciences and Medicine Librarian, Utrecht University; David Mellor, Project Manager, Journal and Funder Initiatives, Center for Open Science; Cameron Neylon, Professor of Research Communications, Centre for Culture and Technology, Curtin University; and Alex Viggio, Associate Director, Faculty Information System, University of Colorado, Boulder.
