Open Access Publishing - details available for download in PDF format
Open Access publishing is increasingly important in the research community and the government and research councils are stipulating requirements that UK funded research is published to provide open access for readers. This has implications for us in choosing avenues for publication.
Workshop
Friday 10 May 2013
10.00am - 4.00pm
DG109, David Goldman Informatics Centre, St Peter's Campus
IS IT An Issue? (Research in Industry, Research with Industry) - details available for download in PDF format
The focus of the workshop is to involve industrialists and academics in identifying where the issues are in Information Systems use in practice, and what the opportunities are for collaborative research. Too often discussions around IS research flounder because of misunderstandings. These occur in part because of the different language/terminology used. One aim of the workshop is to overcome this issue.
