> entrepreneurs, users and all other stakeholders interested in issues 
> regarding electronic publishing in widely differing contexts.
>
> Elpub 2015 will in particular focus on the interplay of two dimensions 
> of electronic publishing – the ever growing volume of digital

> that of citizens. This exciting theme will encompass human, cultural, 
> economic, social, technological, legal, commercial and other relevant 
> aspects.
>
> We aim to provide a forum for discussing how scale of collections, 
> openness and trust change the way citizens contribute to modern research.
>
> We invite contributions from members of communities whose research and 
> experiments are transforming the nature of electronic publishing and 
> scholarly communication.
>
> Topics include but are not restricted to:
