Crossref LIVE Oakland

Come and join CROSSREF IN OAKLAND!We're hosting a free-to-attend CROSSREF LIVE EVENT, in OAKLAND, CA on 19 September 2019 in collaboration with the California Digital Library.  The venue opens at 9:30 and the event will start at 10am. CROSSREF MEMBERS ARE WELCOME, but it will also be relevant for the wider scholarly research community. We'll talk about what CROSSREF IS AND DOES, and provide updates on what we're working on. We'll also have guest speakers joining us to chat about wider initiatives, so if you're interested in finding out about ROR [https://ror.org], Metadata 2020 [http://www.metadata2020.org/] or Make Data Count [https://makedatacount.org/], this is a great chance to do that.  Agenda topics will also include: * a look at how Crossref membership is changing (and how its changing Crossref) * a panel discussion on the member/user perspective, including library publishers, OA publishers, and service providers * what's new with Crossref * how funders work with Crossref and the publishing community We'd also love your ideas, questions and feedback. There will be plenty of time on the day for questions and discussion, and you can submit questions in advance when you sign-up or by emailing feedback@crossref.org. There is no cost for attending the event, but we do need people to register as space is limited. Lunch is included. We'll also have an informal drinks meet-up after the day's events (details to follow). We hope to see you there!
