About the panel
Transformation of the scientific publishing enterprise is impacting the academy as well. How are deans of research ensuring that their institutions are adapting to the demands of open access, particularly with regard to the shift in “budgetary buckets” required by transformative agreements? How is the university’s approach to research management changing given the increasingly global and crossinstitutional nature of research? How is the university’s approach to research (and researcher) assessment changing? What do they see as the future of the university library? What do they want from publishers?
