Staffing panel proposal for Library Publishing Forum 2020

[Reed, Marianne A.]

Good morning!   For the 2020 Library Publishing Forum, I would like to propose a panel discussion around staffing of library publishing programs, especially those programs that have been able to innovate, and am looking for libraries that would like to participate.

 

I am especially interested in those programs that have been able to do this without passing on a cost. 

 

For example, those programs that offer:

·         Copyright clearance services

·         Graphics design services (for covers, web banners, logos, etc.)

·         Copyediting services

·         Layout services

 

If you’re interested, please contact me as soon as possible and I’ll coordinate a collaborative proposal to meet Friday’s deadline. 

 

Best,

Subject: Call for Proposals: Library Publishing Forum 2020

 

Library Publishing Forum 2020

The Library Publishing Forum is an annual conference bringing together representatives from libraries engaged in (or considering) publishing initiatives to define and address major questions and challenges; to identify and document collaborative opportunities; and to strengthen and promote this community of practice. The Forum is sponsored by the Library Publishing Coalition, but you do not need to be a member of the LPC to attend. The 2020 Forum will be held in Worcester, MA, May 4-6, hosted by the University of Massachusetts Medical School.     Call for Proposals   A call for proposals is now open! In addition to the full sessions and individual presentations formats we have used for the last couple of years, we are also welcoming two new proposal formats: poster talks and experimental sessions. We warmly encourage proposals from first-time presenters and representatives of small and emerging publishing programs. Proposals may address any topic of interest to the library publishing community and all disciplines. However, with the conference being hosted by the University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS), we extend a special invitation to sessions exploring projects or topics related to STEM publishing and the Open Science Movement. The proposal deadline is November 15th. Learn more and submit a proposal     Library Publishing Forum Award   The Library Publishing Coalition is pleased to offer the third annual Library Publishing Forum Award. This year, we will offer up to three awards to aid individuals from diverse backgrounds in attending and contributing at the Forum. Applications for the Forum Award are due by November 15.   Learn more and apply     Questions?    Email con...@librarypublishing.org.

[Reed, Marianne A.]

Good morning!  I want to clarify my previous message, below.  I’ve received some questions from people who wondered if I was looking for library publishing programs that provided ALL of the following.   My apologies; I intended to say that I’m interested in the staffing of programs that offer any of the services below, since those seem to be less commonly provided. 

 

For example, those programs that offer any of the following:

·         Copyright clearance services

·         Graphics design services (for covers, web banners, logos, etc.)

·         Copyediting services

·         Layout services

 

So sorry for any confusion that I might have caused!   Please let me know if you have any questions or if you are interested in submitting a joint proposal for a panel on this topic.
