Proposals that address one or more of the following topics are  
especially encouraged:

New reading and publishing technologies, e.g., integration of Web 2.0  
features;
Reports on national and regional open access policies and initiatives;
Alternative publishing and funding models;
National and international collaborative projects;
New roles and partnerships for libraries, scholarly publishers, and  
others;
Sustainability for open access publishing and open source software.
The conference will consist of a mixture of plenary presentations,  
panel discussions, brief "lightning talks," posters, workshops, a  
hackfest, an exhibitor hall, and parallel conference sessions in the  
following streams:

Editors, publishers, and librarians
Researchers and members of scholarly/scientific societies
Software developers and system administrators
Community/User groups
Parallel sessions will each be up to 20 minutes in length. Lightning  
Talks and "Ask a Developer" presentations are limited to 5 minutes  
each. Sessions may consist of a case study, a research report, a "big  
idea" in publishing, as well as other options.

Proposals (500 word maximum) should be submitted by March 15, 2011,  
using the submission guidelines and form available on our web site.  
All proposals will be subject to peer-review and you will be informed  
of a decision by June 1, 2011. Due to the strong interest in this  
year's conference, only a limited number of sessions will be accepted.
