Access Lab 2021 is a global online event in which libraries, publishers and library users attend to discuss challenges and solutions facing the information industry.
The 2021 conference theme is ‘Thriving in the (un)usual. Creativity. Agility. Pace’. Planning for disruption and change, doing more with less, data-driven decisions and crossing the digital divide through collaboration are just a few of the topics that will be discussed and debated by speakers and attendees at the 2021 event.
Submissions for speakers for the 2021 conference are invited by Friday 9 October 2020.
The two-day conference will see many international publishers and library professionals in attendance to share knowledge and get involved in a variety of sessions showcasing case studies from around the world.
OpenAthens commercial director Jon Bentley said: “This year has presented many challenges to our industry. Although it has been a turbulent time, OpenAthens has continued to develop and support remote access solutions for its world-wide customer base during the pandemic. We also collaborated with innovative businesses such as QXMD and ClinOwl to increase access to healthcare research content.”
“The theme of this year’s conference reflects how we as an industry are responding to the challenging times we’re in and how we are evolving and planning for the future.”
“Our annual conference is a key date in the knowledge sector’s diary and we’re always honoured by the stellar guests who attend and participate.”
“We’re looking forward to reviewing speaker submissions covering a wide range of topics. Once again, we expect Access Lab to be an important opportunity for industry professionals to make connections, discuss ideas and be inspired for the future.”
The Access Lab 2021 conference is relevant for anyone with an interest in identity and access management and the information sector, says OpenAthens.
