Publisher workshop: metadata, Open Access and more

We’d like to invite you to join us to talk open access, metadata, data citation and legal deposit alongside colleagues from other publishers. This free event is aimed at smaller publishers, university presses and other organisations trying to get to grips with all of the above.

Crossref and the British Library are co-hosting a free event on 5th February from 1pm - 5pm in the Brontë Room in the Conference Centre at the British Library and it would be great to see you there. We’re going to share updates on what we’re working on, and we’re keen to hear what questions you have, challenges you’re facing and what’s coming up on the horizon.
