Summary: 
As publishers overseeing high-impact websites, books and journals, we are frequently the front line for queries from scientific communicators on innovation and options in traditional and open publishing models, providing more clarity regarding who our readers are, opportunities for engaging readers with content, as well as on submitting manuscripts, peer-review, and post-publication services. By gathering delegate questions (in advance and during the session), we can reassure delegates on common publishing pain-points and provide an update on the progress to an open world as well as other opportunities from a range of publishers.

Learning objectives:
  • Update themselves on how publishers are supporting global open publishing initiatives and innovations to ensure better reader engagement with content
  • Further the conversation about the future of open publishing, e.g. open access, open peer review, plain-language summaries, data sharing, preprints
  • Understand the challenges and opportunities publishers face in providing enhanced data regarding our readers
  • Receive an overview of publisher advances that will make publishing their manuscript a smoother experience
