Welcome to NCSC2004 - the Second Nordic Conference on Scholarly Communication. Lund, Sweden, April 26-28, 2004.
. http://www.lub.lu.se/ncsc2004/ Following up the success of the First Nordic Conference on Scholarly Communication, Lund University Libraries are proud to announce the Second Nordic Conference. The theme of the 2004 conference is "Towards a new publishing environment". Since the last conference, held in October 2002, many interesting developments have occurred with direct consequences for publishers, researchers and libraries. What implications will a new model for scholarly communication have for publishers and for funding authorities? How will the mechanisms for quality control and peer review work in a new publishing environment, and how will the issue of intellectual property rights be managed? In order to discuss, present and analyze the problems and challenges that arise within scholarly communication Lund University Libraries invite scholars, publishers, vendors, editors, librarians and other interested parties to the Second Nordic Conference on Scholarly Communication 26 - 28 April 2004. The conference will take place every second year and aims to be an important contribution to the discussion and to the development within the Nordic countries.
