Transforming Scholarly Communications: CSC and Licensing Update

Thursday October 05, 2023

From 8:30am to 10:00am

Coast Coal Harbour - Coal A and B

Please join CRKN staff and Denise LaFitte (Chair of the Content Strategy Committee) for our annual update on licensing activities and renewal negotiations. Our session will begin with a brief overview of outcomes from last fiscal year, followed by significant time to review this year’s negotiation results (Elsevier, Oxford, and Sage) and gather feedback and guidance from members on next steps. Updates will also be shared regarding preparations for next year’s negotiations, particularly with respect to Springer Nature, and on the latest developments regarding the expansion of the Scholars Portal journals platform for all CRKN members. As always, the input from members during the licensing session is critical for the work of the CSC, and we are looking forward to an interactive and vibrant discussion in Vancouver!
