Event Notification / Call for Participation

The Third International PKP Scholarly Publishing Conference
Building and Sustaining Alternative Scholarly Publishing Projects Around
the World
http://pkp.sfu.ca/ocs/pkp/index.php/pkp2011/

The Public Knowledge Project is pleased to announce that, in partnership
with the Freie Universität Berlin, the Third International PKP Scholarly
Publishing Conference will be held from September 26 - 28, 2011 in
Berlin, Germany. This is the first time that the PKP Conference is being
held outside of Vancouver, Canada, and we look forward to meeting more
members of the growing, international PKP user community. Given that the
landmark Budapest Open Access Initiative, launched in December 2001,
will be celebrating its first decade, the conference invites
explorations of the lessons learned, successes achieved, and setbacks
overcome in our shared attempts to increase and open access within
scholarly publishing. The first and second PKP conferences brought
together a remarkable array of presentations and participants from
around the world, and we anticipate an equally valuable experience in 2011.

Proposals that address one or more of the following topics are
especially encouraged:

     * New reading and publishing technologies, e.g., integration of Web
2.0 features;
     * Reports on national and regional open access policies and
initiatives;
     * Alternative publishing and funding models;
     * National and international collaborative projects;
     * New roles and partnerships for libraries, scholarly publishers,
and others;
     * Sustainability for open access publishing and open source software.

The conference will consist of a mixture of plenary presentations, panel
discussions, brief "lightning talks," posters, workshops, a hackfest, an
exhibitor hall, and parallel conference sessions in the following streams:

     * Editors, publishers, and librarians
     * Researchers and members of scholarly/scientific societies
     * Software developers and system administrators
     * Community/User groups

Parallel sessions will each be up to 20 minutes in length. Lightning
Talks and "Ask a Developer" presentations are limited to 5 minutes each.
Sessions may consist of a case study, a research report, a "big idea" in
publishing, as well as other options.

Proposals (500 word maximum) should be submitted by March 15, 2011,
using the submission guidelines and form available on our web site. All
proposals will be subject to peer-review and you will be informed of a
decision by June 1, 2011. Due to the strong interest in this year's
conference, only a limited number of sessions will be accepted.

the PKP software applications.

6. "Ask a Developer" Presentations (5 minutes)
Very brief (5 minute) presentations illustrating a particular problem,

recommendations, or opportunities for further collaboration.

The Public Knowledge Project is a research and development initiative
directed toward improving the scholarly and public quality of academic
research through the development of innovative online publishing and
knowledge-sharing environments. Located at the University of British
Columbia, Simon Fraser University, and Stanford University, PKP has
developed free, open source software for the management, publishing, and
indexing of journals and conferences. Software such as Open Journal
Systems, Open Conference Systems and Open Monograph Press increase
access to knowledge, improve management, and reduce publishing costs.
Over 6500 online journals worldwide are currently using the OJS software.
