<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is hosting the Open Access and Research Conference in Brisbane Australia, from 31 October to 1 November 2013.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The conference is an opportunity to take stock of recent developments in Open Access and to discuss the strategic advantages these bring to the research sector moving forward.
The conference theme ‘Discovery, Impact and Innovation’ examines these developments and looks ahead, to how these emerging systems of scholarly communication can maximise research impact and help realise the full benefits of public research worldwide.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The program includes speakers from the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia, as well as a number of thematic sessions focusing on issues such as advocacy, alternative
metrics, open data and open access publishing.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Pre-conference workshops will also be held on Wednesday 30 October.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I will be facilitating the ‘Advocacy: What Works’ session. The workshop will explore current issues in Open Access including: discipline trends towards different open access
options, publishing trends, the level of market penetration of open access journals versus use of repositories and a view to the future. Participants will be encouraged to bring examples from their own experiences and to consider: What methods of demonstrating
the benefits of Open Access are working? Do mandates help or hinder?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
