Dear colleagues,<br>
<br>
You are cordially invited to the ALCTS Scholarly Communications Interest Group Panel Discussion at the ALA Midwinter Meeting:<br>
<br>
Topic: Hybrid Journals: Transition to Full Open Access or Here to Stay?<br>
Date: Saturday, January 8, 2011<br>
Time: 1:30pm - 3:30pm<br>
Location: Room 23C, San Diego Convention Centre (SDCC)<br>
<br>
It is now common that subscription-based journals provide the "author pays" option for authors to publish their research as open access articles. What determines the pricing of the "author pays" option and how is this hybrid model faring? Four panelists will discuss the development, perceptions, and future of the hybrid model of journal publishing from different perspectives. The moderator and panelists are:<br>
<br>
Moderator:<br>
Judy Luther, President, Informed Strategies<br>
<br>
Panelists:<br>
+ Philip Bourne, Professor of Pharmacology, University of California San Diego<br>
+ Charles Eckman, University Librarian & Dean of Library Services, Simon Fraser University, Canada<br>
+ Patricia Hudson, Senior Marketing Manager, Oxford Journals, Oxford University Press<br>
+ Dan Morgan, Executive Publisher, Psychology & Cognitive Science, Elsevier<br>
<br>
An open forum will follow the panelists' presentations. Participants are welcome to raise questions, exchange ideas, and explore possibilities for scholarly publishing. Please join us for a constructive and thought-provoking conversation on Jan. 8th!<br>
<br>
