There is no program yet but a list of speakers:
Berlin 4 Open Access
Challenges, Experiences, Perspectives in an Open Access World
The aim of this international conference is to bring together the
various initiatives and key players within the open access movement.
Key-notes, lectures and reports will cover a wide range of subjects.
Authors' attitudes towards Open Access are addressed as well as
issues with regard of Open Access to scientific (raw) data. One
session will be devoted to "Open Access to cultural heritage".
Visions of new forms of scholarly communications will be presented
as well as first concrete experiences. Specific attention will be
given to the issues of Open Access in developing countries.
Among the speakers are well-known Open Access experts, providing a
review of recent Open Access developments, scientists from different
fields like biology or astrophysics, reporting on their experiences
with Open Access. We are looking forward to learning first results
from CERN's Open Access task force.
Among the speakers are (in alphabetic order)
Lars Jensen, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL)
Jürgen Renn, Max Planck Institute for the History of Science
Laurent Romary, CNRS
Peter Suber, Public Knowledge
Alma Swan, Key Perspectives
Wolfgang Voges, Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics
Rüdiger Voss, CERN
John Wilbanks, Science Commons
Astrid Wissenburg, Research Councils UK
The "Berlin 4" meeting will bring together people who can make a
difference to the cause of Open Access. Join us!
A more detailed version of the program will be available soon.
I'll probably attend it.
Mit Freien Grüßen
Stefan
