SPARC, ACRL announce speakers for forum on changing state of open-access journal publishing -

The Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC) and the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) have announced the speakers for a panel discussion on 'Marketplace: Open Access and the changing state of scholarly publishing'. The event is being held in conjunction with the upcoming meeting of the American Library Association (ALA) in San Diego, CA, on January 8, 2011, at the San Diego Convention Center, Room 29A.

This forum will discuss the rapidly changing - and maturing - open-access publishing sphere, illustrate the growing range of options and approaches that are emerging, and help the library community to make sense of what it all means for you and your campus.

Guest presenters will include Caroline Sutton, President of the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association (OASPA); Wim van der Stelt, Executive Vice President of Corporate Strategy for Springer; and Catriona McCallum, Chief Editor of PLoS Biology for the Public Library of Science (PLoS).
