Publishing Ethics: Doing the Right Thing - Doing Things Right
APE 2017 in Berlin, 17 - 18 January 2017
Pre-Conference Day: 16 January 2017
Join us in an ongoing international debate about the Future of Scholarly Communication & Scientific Publishing. This is APE Nr. 12.
Our Headlines: innovation, research output, big data, reproducibility, reputation, peer review and quality control, rating and reputation, academic and scientific publishing, electronic libraries and repositories, open access and open science, permanent identifiers, information infrastructure, policies and reputation and – last but not least – sustainable economic models and long-term financing.
The APE 2017 Program is being developed by a highly reputed Program Committee, guaranteeing internationality, actuality and topical interests.
The APE Conferences aim at a better understanding of scholarly communication and the role of information in science, education and society. They encourage the debate about the future of value-added scientific publishing, information dissemination and access to scientific results and offer an independent forum for 'open minds'. Participants have enjoyed this very open atmosphere in the Academy of Sciences at the famous Gendarmenmarkt in Berlin Mitte. Participants are: academic, educational, scientific, technological, medical, legal and professional publishers, university presses, researchers, authors, editors, librarians, teachers, learned and professional societies and associations, funding agencies, politicians and policy makers, subscription agencies and booksellers, recruiting agencies and technology providers. APE Conferences provide an inventory and show the way ahead in a collaborative effort involving all stakeholders. At the same time they are open for a review of new enabling technologies that may cope with new requirements and also look at sustainability given the changes of behaviour. As always there will be a lot of time for discussions and meetings with friends and colleagues.
The number of participants is limited to 220! Please note: all APE Conferences so far had a waiting list. If you are interested to participate, please do register in time and inform colleagues and friends to do the same. We have reserved rooms in NH Hotel Berlin Mitte.
The Conference Dinner will be offered in Restaurant “Refugium”, under the French Dome on Gendarmenmarkt opposite the Academy.
Members of STM, ICSTI, ALPSP, SSP, Börsenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels/AKEP, DGI and GI enjoy a general discount of 25%. Group and academic rates on request.
