Subject: Going to CLA? Don't miss these Open Access Interest Group
Activities

 

Greetings colleagues,

 

If you are going to CLA 2010 this week in Edmonton, please note the
following meeting and session hosted by the CLA Open Access Interest
Group! There are also many sessions this year that relate to aspects of
Open Access theory and practice aside from those we list below, so do
review the program carefully for these, and we look forward to seeing
you in Edmonton!

 

On Friday, June 4:

 

Breakfast meeting:

7:30 - 9:00  CLA Interest Groups Breakfast Meeting: Please join your
conveners at an informal roundtable breakfast discussion meeting for all
members of all Interest Groups, and look for the table marked "Open
Access"!

 

Conference Session E35:


10:30- 11:00 Demystifying Open Access (OA-IG CLA Session)

The international Open Access (OA) movement is changing how journal
literature is created, disseminated, and purchased. Individuals from
academic, public and  special libraries are invited to a demystifying
look at "green" and "gold" journals, Creative Commons, and information
"harvesting". We'll explore cost models,  intellectual property, OA
infrastructure, and practical support strategies.

Speakers: Lisa Goddard, Division Head for Systems, Memorial University

Shannon Gordon, Public Services Librarian, Memorial University

 

Enjoy the conference!

 

Sincerely,

 

Lisa Goddard

Leah Vanderjagt

Co-conveners, Canadian Library Association Open Access Interest Group
