Location: London, UK
This one-day seminar aims to present a practical introductory overview of all aspects
of journals and e-resources management.
The emphasis is on developing a sound basic understanding of the details of journals and e-resources handling in order to promote efficient and informed working practices. A wide range of day-to-day issues will be covered, with time devoted to recognising and resolving the problems that can arise at the boundaries between publishers, intermediaries and libraries, and addressing business models such as open access. In addition, the seminar will provide an overview of the technical aspects of managing e-resources.
Delegates will be able to air and exchange views in the afternoon discussion session.
