About ELPUB 2009:
Electronic publishing via the Internet is continuously changing its
shapes and models, challenging traditional players to adapt to new
contexts. New opportunities and new needs invite us to rethink
electronic publishing, to innovate communication paradigms and
technologies. The ELPUB 2009 conference will focus on key issues in
e-communications, exploring dissemination channels, business models,
technologies, methods and concepts.

The three-day event will begin with a full day of technical workshops,
tutorials and demonstrations. The following two days will feature
contributed papers and posters examining a broad range of technical,
conceptual, policy, and financial aspects of scholarly communication
and showcasing significant experiences and lessons learnt. A symposium
on openness in the academic environment will be run by Leslie Chan
and Gale Moore, and special keynotes by Henk Moed and Simon Tanner
will enrich the programme. A lively social programme will provide the
chance to meet and exchange views with speakers and participants from
all continents. Not to forget Italian food and a trip to the famous
Borromean Islands!
