Publishing practices at the crossroads: between the print media and the internet
The aim of this event is to promote reflection and debate on how a wide range of new technologies that are ushering in a new Digital Age across the globe are affecting, and will continue to affect, publishing practices in science. The introduction of new revolutionary communication technologies at the end of the 20th century has clearly had a most profound impact on the mode of production, appropriation, and dissemination of scientific knowledge. In our view it is urgent that all interested parties, practicing scientists and publishers, engage collectively in assessing the state of affairs and future prospects as we find ourselves at historical crossroads between the print media and the Internet.
