Cern Workshop on Innovations in Scholarly Communication

The Organising Committee of the CERN Workshop on Innovations in 
Scholarly Communication (OAI7) is welcoming poster submissions 
for the Workshop to be held at the University of Geneva on 22-24 
June 2011 in Geneva, Switzerland. The deadline for submissions is 
1st April 2011.

Please consult the Workshop website for more information:

Posters are invited on projects directly related to the themes of 
the workshop and decisions on acceptance will be communicated on 
an ongoing basis and no later than the end of April. Further 
information is found under the Posters link on the webpage:

There will be a dedicated poster session on the morning of 
Thursday 23rd June, with a prize for the best poster, as selected 
by the delegates. Also, authors of posters selected for display 
at OAI7 will have the opportunity to link a short video 
describing their work on the Workshop website.

The programme for the Workshop is also now available:

The OAI series of workshops is one of the biggest international 
meetings of technical repository-developers, repository managers, 
librarians, policy makers, and the funders and researchers that 
they serve. The programme contains a mix of practical tutorials 
given by experts in the field, presentations from cutting-edge 
projects and research, posters from the community, breakout 
discussion groups, and an intense social programme which has 
helped to build a strong network amongst previous participants. 
The event is almost unique in bringing together these scholarly 
communication communities and is proud to continue this tradition 
with the OAI7 workshop in 2011.
