What are your goals for the summer?

• Do you want your research to reach more people but don’t know how? 
  
• Perhaps you need help telling the story of yourself as a scholar and curating your online presence.
  
• Or maybe you need a primer on new forms of publication, how they are assessed, and their role in promotion and tenure? 
  
• Or are you curious about open peer review, open annotation, and open access—and their benefits for students and faculty alike? 
  

If so, consider joining us at the FORCE 11 SCHOLARLY COMMUNICATIONS INSTITUTE in seaside La Jolla, CA.

July 31–August 4, 2017.

University of California–San Diego.

WHY SHOULD I ATTEND?

-- To Understand the Changing World of Publishing: From open access to altmetrics, you’ll be thoroughly immersed in new modes and forms of academic publishing and communication.

-- To Pass It On: Bring back your newfound knowledge to your peers and students, and help them be better prepared for the job market, whatever their chosen career.
