Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen, ich möchte Sie auf eine Veranstaltung der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft aufmerksam machen (Mehrfachempfang bitte ich zu entschuldigen): Einladung/Invitation 18.11.2013¦ 7 p.m. Who's afraid of red tape? Open access for a next generation science library Everyone is talking about digital information transfer, however many libraries are not even keeping pace with existing developments. Scarce resources, difficult collection histories and the increasing flood of publications often make traditional knowledge repositories seem like laggards. Does open access strengthen the position of the libraries or does it mean even more work for them? What form should the research library of the future take? This event will take place in English. Speakers: Jens Vigen, Head of the Scientific Information Service at CERN Prof. Dr. Rick Luce, Dean of the University of Oklahoma Libraries Moderation: Matthias Spielkamp, Journalist und Open Access-Experte Eintritt frei ORT Max Planck Science Gallery Markgrafenstrasse 37 10117 Berlin-Mitte http://www.mpg.de/7535873/open_access_2013 Anmeldungen bis 14.11. unter: sciencegallery@gv.mpg.de Mit freundlichen Grüßen Kai Geschuhn Kai Karin Geschuhn Max Planck Digital Library Open Access & License Management Amalienstraße 33 | 80799 München Phone +49 (0) 89 38602 253 Fax +49 (0) 89 38602 290 geschuhn@mpdl.mpg.de
