in3/9 at #UCDavis: Workshop: Authorship and the Promises of Digital Dissemination
AUTHORSHIP AND THE PROMISES OF DIGITAL DISSEMINATION
Wednesday, March 9, 4:00- 5:45 pm
UC Davis School of Law, King Hall, Rm 2100A
A cross-disciplinary panel discussion on authorship in the digital age, with a focus on the specific goals and needs of academic authors. Authors who write to be read care about how their works are published and what that means for reader access. While traditional options and copyright arrangements still predominate in many fields, there are ever-increasing ways to share works of authorship. What works best to get textual and visual works out there and under what circumstances? Join us for this panel discussion with Authors Alliance, where we will explore the opportunities and challenges authors face in maximizing the reach of their work, both in and outside of academia.
