Registration is open for the OAI7 Workshop on Innovations in Scholarly
Communication

Dear colleagues,

Registration for OAI7, the 7th Workshop on Innovations in Scholarly
Communication is open. This event will be held in Geneva, Switzerland, from
Wednesday 22nd to Friday 24th June 2011. Please register with the online
form you can find on the website of the conference along with the full
programme : http://indico.cern.ch/event/oai7.

The workshop will follow the successful format of previous editions mixing
practical tutorials, presentations from cutting-edge projects and research,
discussion groups, posters, and an intense social programme to maximise
interaction and communication. It will be possible to register for a part or
all of the programme.

The workshop is aimed at those involved in the development of open access
(OA) repositories and who can influence the direction of developments either
within their institution, their country or at an international level - that
includes technical developers of OA bibliographic databases and connected
services, research information policy developers at university or library
level, funding bodies concerned with access to the results of their
research, OA publishers, and influential researchers keen to lead OA
developments in their own field.

Previous workshops have built a strong community spirit and the event is a
unique opportunity to exchange ideas and contact details with a large public
connected to the OA movement. The OAI workshops are series of most important
international meetings in this field and take place roughly every two years.

Further information will be added to the website, including details on a
pre-conference day and the call for posters.

The committee looks forward to welcoming you to Geneva.
