ACRL Scholarly Communication Discussion Group at ALA Midwinter, San 
Antonio, Texas: Authors and Authority: Perspectives on Negotiating 
Licenses and Copyright - continuing the discussion from the ACRL SPARC 
Forum

Sunday, January 22, 2006, 4-6 pm

HCB Room 213

David Hoole, Head of Brand Marketing and Content Licensing, Nature 
Publishing Group and John Ober, Director of Education and Strategy, 
California Digital Library will lead a discussion as a follow up to 
their presentations on Saturday at the ACRL SPARC Forum. Join us to 
continue the discussion from Saturday or hear their ideas and join the 
conversation.

They will discuss ways that the traditional relationship between author 
and publisher is changing: from individual author's addenda included 
with publishing agreements to large-scale efforts from universities and 
organizations like Creative Commons and Science Commons. At the SPARC-
ACRL Forum they will outline a path for the future that will better 
serve academe and the public. Participants in the Discussion Group will 
have a chance to further discuss their ideas and offer their own.

Please join us for this event.
