for
next week's OASPA webinar which on Wednesday, June 24th at 3.00 pm BST /
10.00 am EDT / 2.00 pm UTC.

This webinar will explore recent steps from some publishers and other
scholarly communications organisations that are collaborating with the aim
of increasing efficiency and speed in the publication of COVID-19 research
by responding to researcher needs for societal impact.

*Sarah Greaves* (Hindawi Ltd) will share information about the
cross-publisher “RapidReview” of COVID papers initiative, which has a
number of publishers collaborating. *Monica Granados *& *Michael
Johansson *(Outbreak
PREreview) will talk of the link to COVID preprints and closing the
loop. *Susanna-
Assunta Sansome *& *Peter McQuilton *(FAIRsharing) will talk about data
sharing and stewardship and cross-publisher harmonization.

This initiative is a work in progress and we would welcome your feedback,
questions and general support to ensure that COVID papers are rapidly
shared and rigorously reviewed at this time. Our speakers will each provide
their own perspective and then we will open up the webinar to questions
from the audience.
