Now in its 9th year, COASP is a vital conference for the open access
publishing community to gather, advance and develop discussions,
relationships, policy and research around open access publishing. As in
previous years, delegates from a wide range of backgrounds will be brought
together for an exciting range of panels, events, and networking
opportunities. We are proud to consistently offer global, diverse
perspectives on publishing each year, and welcome attendees at all stages
of their careers who work in publishing, librarianship, government, higher
education, funding agencies, nonprofits, and other affiliated industries.
Community and collaboration is at the heart of open access publishing, and
we are excited to offer both again at COASP this year for all those working
in open access around the world.



A pre-conference reception for delegates will be held on the evening of
Tuesday 19th September. Accommodation recommendations are available at

Best wishes,

Leyla
