Following up the success of the First Nordic Conference on Scholarly
Communication, Lund University Libraries are proud to announce the Second
Nordic Conference. The theme of the 2004 conference is "Towards a new
publishing environment".

Since the last conference, held in October 2002, many interesting
developments have taken place with direct consequences for publishers,
researchers and libraries. What implications will a new model for
scholarly communication have for publishers and for funding authorities?
How will the mechanisms for quality control and peer review work in a new
publishing environment and how will the issue of intellectual property
rights be managed?

In order to discuss, present and analyze the problems and challenges that
arise within scholarly communication Lund University Libraries invite
scholars, publishers, vendors, editors, librarians and other interested
parties to the Second Nordic Conference on Scholarly Communication 26 - 28
April 2004. The conference will take place every second year and aims to
be an important contribution to the discussion and to the development
within the Nordic countries.
