ChronosHub Webinars in 2022

Curious to know why many publishers go for third party providers instead of keeping things in-house? We sure were! So, we invited Shelley Allen from UK-based scholarly publisher, Emerald Publishing to join us for our second webinar to learn more about their experience with technology partnerships.

On March 10, we hosted our first webinar in our new researcher-centric webinar series – an introduction to Open Access. Read a recap of our first researcher-centric webinar and have a look at the recording!

Open Access brings along many exciting opportunities to share scholarly knowledge more widely – but it doesn’t come without a cost.

For our third session in our researcher-centric webinar series, we looked at funder requirements. Romy Beard and Laura Davidson took the lead in the webinar, guiding us through the most typical requirements from funders and some of the common issues that authors may encounter.

In April, we unpacked this topic in this webinar, where we discussed the effect of OA on institutions, publishers, and submission system providers. The panel consisted of Matthew Goddard, Head & E-Resources Librarian at Iowa State University, Kate Horgan, Director of Client Services at Aries Systems, and Matthew Day, Head of Open Research Policy & Partnerships at Cambridge University Press. Perhaps common challenges related to institutional affiliation and author roles are determined at submission.

Many libraries and publishers negotiate agreements so that a researcher does not have to pay an article processing charge to get the final version of their work published Open Access. ​

On June 15, we hosted an educational webinar and invited a strong expert panel of guest speakers to share their experiences and viewpoints when it comes to accessibility, affordability, and discoverability of scholarly content.
