Berlin 5 Open Access: From Practice to Impact: Consequences on Knowledge
Dissemination Padova, Italy, September 19-21, 2007

The University of Padova, the CRUI (Council of Rectors of Italian
Universities) and the Max Planck Gesellschaft are pleased to announce that
the fifth conference in the "Berlin Declaration" tradition will take place
in September 19-21, 2007 in Padova, Italy, with the title "Berlin 5 Open
Access: From Practice to Impact: Consequences on Knowledge Dissemination".

The aim of the conference will be to bring together the various initiatives
and key players within the Open Access movement in order to:
- maintain the enthusiasm of all people involved in the Open Access field,
- have an overview of the developing tools that sustain Open Access in
scientific data and cultural heritage dissemination,
- develop the effective strategies that can contribute to the construction
and implementation of this new paradigm of the scholarly communication
world.

The general subjects of the conference will focus on:
a) state-of-the-art of the sharing of the Berlin Declaration vision: 
survey on the impact of the new paradigm in the institutions that signed the
declaration; supporting bodies policies and activities in favour of
innovative scholarly communication processes;
b) the Open Access scene in the developing countries and emerging
economies: strategies, achievements, impact;
c) Open Access and the e-science: how to support the free circulation of
scientific raw data to facilitate cooperation and effective reuse;
d) e-publishing: the emerging of new strategies in scientific data
dissemination; estimate of the impact in OA journals: new tools for
scholarly evaluation in the growing layer of Open Access publications; the
perspective of a changing landscape in the scientific journals policies;
progress reports on the transition from reader-pays to author-pays models;
e) ICT developments and collaborations that support e-publishing and Open
Access.

The event will take place in Padova, one of the main cultural and economic
hubs in the Northeast of Italy. In its superb medieval centre, Padova hosts
a well renowned collection of Giotto's frescoes. 
September is a very mild month in Italy, when summer slowly yields to autumn
in vivid colours.

The conference will be hosted by the University of Padova, among the oldest
academic institutions in the world and the home of the famous scientist
Galileo Galilei. The University of Padova wishes that this circumstance will
bring good auspices for the future of scholarly communication and looks
forward to welcoming you in Italy in 2007.

Further details about the conference will appear soon on the website:
