Society for Scholarly Publishing meeting announcement

["Karen King" <KKing@nutrition.org>]

On behalf of the Society for Scholarly Publishing, I would like 
to provide information on an upcoming meeting of interest to 
LibLicense members:

The Society for Scholarly Publishing's Top Management Roundtable: 
Constant Content and Autonomous Authors: The New Role of 
Publishers in the Era of Empowered Authors

There are a lot of conferences about scholarly communications, 
but the Society for Scholarly Publishing is inviting you to join 
us at the Philadelphia Four Seasons Hotel on September 3-5 for 
something a little different: Constant Content and Autonomous 
Authors: The New Role of Publishers in the Era of Empowered 
Authors.

Publishing executives thinking about the future of their digital 
offerings; editors intrigued with new content forms; managing 
editors and publishing directors involved with guiding authors 
and editors through the adoption of new tools and ways of 
generating content will be joining the discussion.

Speakers from Amazon.com, Outsell, Nature Publishing Group, Seed 
Media Group, TECH cocktail, Intrapromote, and The Wall Street 
Journal Health Blog will explore how publishers can maintain 
brand, audience, and revenue in a world where authors are 
autonomous.

Our keynote presentations by David Perlmutter, author of 
Blogwars, and Scott Karp, author of Publishing 2.0, will discuss 
how social information is changing the world and how authors and 
publishers specifically will approach this changed landscape.

Guest interviews and proceedings will be produced as podcasts and 
blogs, and these authors, including Christopher Kenneally, 
producer of Beyond the Book podcast; award-winning Adam Weiss, 
podcaster and podcast consultant; Jill O'Neill, information 
industry professional and serial blogger, and Kent Anderson, 
author of The Scholarly Kitchen blog will share their insights 
and discuss and show the tools that have empowered their 
independence.

Register today. Seats are filling quickly and attendance will be 
limited to 80 to create an interactive environment. Learn more 
about our speakers at the TMR blog.

We look forward to seeing you in Philadelphia!
